Now there's a thought.
That did sound extremely attractive, if a bit more worrisome for Ves. Perverting a neural interface went against his design philosophy, and studying how to become proficient against it would inflict real damage to his very design DNA!

He's already crossed the line by knowingly working on a mech with a compromised neural helmet. Tampering with one himself isn't as big a leap as presented.

So, the man who created a taboo weapon and participated in restoring a mech that harms its pilot is afraid of the MTA for breaking yet another taboo? Never let us forget the nature of their mission. Ves seems to be on a course to pretty much violate every convention known to man.
The MTA may seem like a large but invisible power in the Komodo Star Sector, but the severe crime that Major Verle expected of Ves went way over the bottom line of the MTA!

Waste of time and resources...
The complete rout by the pirate forces left them with very little opportunity to rescue their stranded comrades, which the Vandals ruthlessly took advantage of by capturing scores of prisoners!

And thus, over time, through thousands of years of adaptation, the transformers were born. The spark of human intelligence and creativity cast off its biological shell to take up residence within its new mechanical body, although it would be some time before they gained their ability to transform. The end.
In short, this amazing capacity to internalize a large amount of sensory, mechanical and external data inputs and process them in an extremely efficient way became the signature ability of modern mech pilots. How else could they exert fine control over a massive multi-ton mech the size of a structure that ran millions of different processes at the same time?

It seemed like any Dick, Joe and Margaret had the opportunity to obtain a means to fool even high-quality monitoring systems like the ones utilized by the Flagrant Vandals.

Never watched the whole series.
[Commander Rage, we have a report. A munitions transport wagon has picked up an infantry unit on the mountain and returned them to the defensive line. Barring a rest break, ETA for the wagered unit is two hours to Staging.] Colonel Klinger reported.

For starters, I have a degree in economics. I have studied many different economic forms. What you are doing is conflating issues together and relabling them. You are espousing (badly, I might add) an opinion without supporting facts. You want evidence? Just look at any modern textbook on economics. What you espouse more resembles political science and sociology.
At the side, Buggy's gaze was filled with horror as it listened to Shi Yu's muttering. Damn it, what level of capitalist are you…

Sure, be ignorant all you want.
Anyone willing to visit a hive of scum and villainy was either a scum or a villain!

Did you actually read this novel? Everything about your post indicates that you weren't paying attention!

Given the nature of the ship, I would have called it "A Necessary Gamble."
After some deliberation, they eventually decided on naming their shuttle the Six-Sided Dice. It sounded a bit more sophisticated than calling it the 'Cube' or something.

Forward and reverse, destruction and rebirth, this endless cycle might very well persist until the end of reality itself! Some even say that the people aboard the transport would forever live through the agony of experiencing rebirth and death without any way to escape their cruel and undeserved fate!

They would have called anyone who made them do their actual jobs a slave driver.
The disgruntled mech technicians already called Ves a slave driver behind his back. If Ves could get away with whipping their backs, he would have already done so.

False. People have known for more than 2000 years that the earth was round. It is a false claim that people before Galileo thought it was flat. Aristotle is among the first to discover the earth was a sphere.
"Once upon a time on Old Earth, people believed their world was flat. A visionary known as Galileo came up with the theory that it was round, yet did the people and the established institutions believe him? No! They called him crazy!"

FINALLY! Someone give this man a gold star!
The principles he thought he respected so dearly turned out to be empty platitudes that Ves only adhered to when it suited him. The moment a rule became a hindrance to his interests, he wasn't afraid at all to push it aside!

I guess it's a good thing he built a stealth box.
If he returned to his office and sat behind his terminal to research neural interface technology and use that knowledge to compromise a neural interface, then he'd definitely leave traces behind. Even with the major's cooperation, they couldn't guarantee complete privacy. Even his military-issued comm came with many hidden functions that Ves couldn't entirely trust.
