The problem is that when you meet a race, most of their traits would be painfully obvious. How do you hide the fact that you use organic stuff on your ships? Or crystalline? Or the fact that you are deeply religious (your entire demeanor would give it away)? Some traits could be hidden, but most would be obvious, especially if you ever get to scan or visit a planet of theirs...

It might be obvious that a race is religious, but that doesn't guarantee (or even imply) that they have the technology to never miss. Of course in SE4, there's only one type of "religious".

I supose as a mod idea, you could split the racial techs up and have one "religious" that gives you the talisman, and "religious " that gives you the facilities, etc. Maybe also have a "religious " that gives you nothing and costs 0 points.

EDIT: Hey, I've been promoted! Better watch out, Fyron. I'm catching up
