      Yeah in the book it just felt really corny: we have had "buy a star" scams for a long time and in this story it's really fundamentally no different so it felt kindof corny. But the pitch in this show made it feel a little different. Maybe it was the exact pitch, or it was the marketing and prestige of it being pushed and supported by international governments. Instead of your money going to some straight up grifters, it's at least ostensibly going to the war effort. And so there's some actual prestige and value in having that title as essentially a testament to how much was donated to the effort. Whereas right now anyone who goes and buys a star title, or a 1cm square of Scotland for a phony title or whatever, just is outing themselves as a clueless mark.

    The thing to remember about Auggie is that she is deeply traumitized by what happened on the Judgement Day ship. Remember that several dozens of children (50? 100? 200?) were horrifically slaughtered by what she did.
    Auggies problem with Raj is that he isn't bothered by what they did. It is 1 thing to say it was necessary on an intellectual level. It is another thing to not be traumatized by the whole sale slaughter of children.
    To understand her, we need look no further than the 10's of thousands of soldiers that returned from the Iraq/Afghan war who are so traumitized by what they did and saw that they are all but unable to function. PTSD is real, and it is valid.

    Auggie's main idea of use for the nanofibers were to be used for civilian welfare. Nano-fibers filters could be used to target viruses and micro bacteria more efficiently compared to conventional filters to clean potable water. There are also applications in basic construction and construction of space ships and structures, which is why the San Ti wanted her stop working. While I think she was aware of the military applications, my guess is seeing the remains of children brought the reality too close to home for her. Her animosity to Raj and Wade is unwarranted, but a common mechanism towards guilt and trauma. The brain thinks it's better to externalize negative emotions and blame others than to internalize them and blame oneself.

    In terms of San Ti "not lying" it's desribed in the books that their type of "communication" isn't sound based or have fore-thought like us. The San Ti evolved as a species that would immediately display or "communicate" every thought they had - maybe through bioluminescence (light) or bioradiology (radiowaves), in this way the San Ti are kind of hive mind intelligence that have collective ingenuity and no private thoughts. The San Ti are kind of opposite to us where their communication is instaneous and they always go with collective thinking, whereas humans can think before they speak (to lie or embelish things) and we can be more individualistic with our thinking. In the books, the character that is similar to Will gets sent off to meet the first San Ti fleet - through Will the San Ti study all facets of human biology, psychology and communication - where they finally grasp the concept of lying and use it against us. However luckily for humans, Saul's parallel character in the books learns from his conversations with Ye Winjie to create a language of stories that hides truths and meanings within the tales - which is more comprehensibleto humans and less comprehensive to the San Ti, even with their research on Will.
    As a sidenote: I think Auggie is just struggling with working for wade because she has trouble getting over the aspect of killing and maiming people to achieve our survival as a species - whether that's hurting human worshippers of the San Ti or directly sending arsenals to attack the San Ti. I think it's just shows her humanity because I think most people would still struggle with killing hundreds or thousands of other conscious beings for survival. Moreover, I think Auggie is pressed because many scientists on the Panam project she did weren't fully informed on who they're killing and how many people they were killing. If Wade was more explicit and gave the scientists to formally consent to everyhting then I think there would be less issues.

      that's not entirely absolute - the san-ti do have some degree of independence and individual identity and it's shown that some of them are offended at the idea of conquering humanity and would prefer to negotiate/co-exist even after the overall shift in strategy.

      The thing about Auggie that I like, is that everyone goes straight to thinking about the big picture, someone needs to think about the now. People like Wade don’t care about people, they care about legacy, and to them the end will always justify the means. How much sacrifice should we make now, for the future? How many eggs are we willing to break to make this cosmic omelette. There needs to be a balance between seeing the big picture and seeing the importance of individual lives right now. I don’t necessarily agree with Auggie 100% but it is important for someone to push back.

      I don't think we're supposed to side with Auggie here. We're supposed to see both perspectives and finding realistic flaws in how both sides see the situation. Wade and Co are the pragmatic if somewhat numb realists, and we are supposed to see Auggie to be the frustrated and traumatized idealist who took part in the very sort of thing she likely spent her whole youth rallying against.
      I think she went in knowing it was going to be a bad thing but if the enemy was a bunch of crazed cultists who killed her friend, it was something she could at least stomach. When it turns out they're only a few people and the rest are all their families, well, yeah I'd be pissed too. I'd be able to justify it but would probably feel like shit forever.
