NC: Oh no, we do that later. See, they are putting in the Ion Storm Generator now.
HW: But I want a warp-point opener!
NC: Right, but it is much faster to first install this Storm Generator, and then remove it after we pay the bill.
HW: What?!? Hey, why are you installing eight cloaking devices?
NC: Don't worry, we'll take them out as soon as they are paid for.
HW: I need a drink

I'm with you on this Spoon. I find the whole retro-series things the most bizarre concept in this game. Whether its unbalanced or not I don't care but its just silly. There are hundreds of quite amusing real world analogies on what's the game seems to be modelling here.
