[ot][spam] Thoughts: Mediums of Warfare

[Karl Semich]

After millions of years, cellular biology did not evolve a litany of weapons.

Rather, each species has one weapon. Antlers, poison. _only one_.

This seems to be what worked.

Personally, I'm imagining some kind of 'meta-virus': a lifeform that
produces many different kinds of weaponry. Like other horrible ideas,
this meta-virus would be a threat to every other lifeform. If it
succeeded, life would end as all ecosystems would die.

So, every living thing in existence, at some point in its ancient
history, had to learn to eradicate things that eradicate everything
else, and protect things that don't.
