The Carmine System already granted a lot more humans the ability to pilot mechs, yet that was not enough for most leaders and commanders.
The addition of the Hibiscus System neatly solved the critical training problem, thereby allowing soldiers of all stripes to control Woodsap mechs as if they were larger versions of their own bodies.
Such levels of control was very different from the more traditional methodology of mech piloting.
The degree of body substitution was so much higher that there was no equivalence. It took so little time for most Woodsap mech pilots to reach an acceptable degree of control and precision that this factor alone could immediately strengthen the Terran Alliance national power in the short term!
Many people couldn't get used to the thought of living in this new reality.
"If these Woodsap mechs are truly easy to control, then there is no way that the Terran Alliance will run out of qualified manpower."
