Dismissed Discussion on Discrete Circuitry

[Ayzek]

Given the lack of new information and a disinterest in executing its own research, the Directorate will now process this claim. Considering the above information, the Directorate:

• dismisses this submission,
  
• affirms that discrete circuitry is available in-game to all countries, and
  
• acknowledges that it is the primary computer technology used by the Vestor Licit/Licit Chiri governments for its EMP resistance capabilities.
  

Additionally, the Directorate summarizes that while discrete circuitry (and more specifically: vacuum tubes) have achieved greater miniaturization than at its real-life height of use, it is nonetheless not a rival to semiconductors in that respect. In-game computer systems using discrete circuitry must be at least 10x larger and generally slower than a semiconductor-based unit of similar power.
