RE: Read the Three Body Problem
I wonder if it has to do with a pretty contrived plot device that essentially boils down to being ridiculously overpowered and seems to leave it ripe for inconsistencies?

What, are we suddenly talking about Foundation now?
I almost feel like I described something universal haha. Actually, as I've been reading the second book in the series, I think I would retract my comment. The device is still interesting enough.
I've seen it referenced enough that I'll probably end up reading it up. Probably when I get a flash sale for an ebook. @tcpolymath's description intrigued me. I know it's not like this, but I am picturing a bunch of technocrats yelling 'screw pottery, we are rushing to orbital space lasers!'
LOL. I need that book! I think I do know what he is referencing though. More prominent in the second book though.
Paging @blockurator for your next fiction prompt, see above.
I'll have to read the book. Sounds interesting.
