Also, did you read Flere's spoilers about Cardinal?

Spoiler for What Cardinal had to say about UW's residents:

One of the original four humans who dived in for 18 years wasn't as morally upright and oure as RATH thought he was. These four were involved in raising the 18 pioneer FluctLight souls, or a 'Lord of the Flies' situation would result.

This fourth person passed on two main traits to the FluctLights, the wish to have control over others, and collecting for oneself. Simply put, the seeds of Pride and Greed were implanted into this world.

For reasons I can't even begin to guess, these traits were bred out in the lower-class FluctLights, which explains their unwavering faith and belief in the Taboo Index.

But among the nobles, who rarely intermarried because of their power struggles, these traits had an exponentially larger chance of showing up. Just like recessive genes that lead to all sorts of genetic diseases.

It's highly unlikely the FluctLights would ever engineer a skynet scenario, all Alice wanted for them was respect as human souls.

If sentient AIs actually reach the level of intelligence as the FluctLights, the least we can do to prevent a future conflict is to offer the olive branch first. Any agreement can be broken, yes, but a mutually respected agreement?

- Sorry, my bad. FluctLight

- Umm, I know that Time Flow in Underworld is 1000x faster than real world, that's why it's bad and should be reset to 1000x slower. Isn't it the very reason the administrator became too powerful that RATH would have no chance in trying to take back Underworld? It's 300 hundreds years in there and their civilization is already so advance, in a world where war and natural catastrophe doesn't exist to stop them. If this keeps up then the FluctLight would be superior than us and they wouldn't categorize us as being equal but lower once they gain control over their own survival.

Spoiler for Negative traits:

As for those traits like "greed" and "pride", they're what all humans have, just varied on how much or what type of greed and pride we have. The FluctLight won't be humans anymore without negative traits that all humans have. They'll be too angelic, too saintly, like aliens. And they'll never understand and experience what humans do due to their lack of those.

Even commoners in Underworld are not all that nice despite having negative traits bred out. Look at how most people in Ruild Village act! You can say it's the effect of Taboo Index but without Taboo Index, a lawless world isn't any better. There's no guaranty that they'll live in peace without law.

What Alice wants isn't necessarily the same the other denizens of Underworld. Jesus doesn't want his followers to murder others.

FluctLight might be as sentient as us, but they shouldn't be recognized the same as humans because they lack things humans have. Living in such spoiled environment like Underworld will shape their way of life to be too mild (yet they don't seem that nice). Magic exists in their world that overrule physics. Having limitation set on them not to break law. Their very existence will change our current world for better or worse (like having your jobs stolen by AI or having to make up ridiculous bullshit as payment to AIs if they were to want payment they don't seem to need.
