The morale of the story is that you can only do so much with redundant
components. A better solution is often a redudnant subsystem or an

entriely
redudnant system or even vehicle.

If the goal were really important, i'd actually task at least two
completely independent competing teams with the mission.


With a large bonus pool going to be split between the teams based on the
quality, quantity, and timeliness of the results.

As implemented, Genesis gets bad marks on the quality and quantity of the
data, considering the current condition of the fragmented samples.
