This is so cool. So, she made a decision, they made a decision, there
was a possible cure (I am not sure about cure, it was Bruno who wrote
about it) but hey man, I have no problem. The way the events went did

to retain and increase somebody's power. I see no need to support
this, they are doing all right.
