ECSNorway Wrote:"Immense art constructions" do not dwarf the size and complexity of aircraft carriers.Handwavium doesn't make (powered) weapons that kill people. Shutting-down the life-support kills people. If necessary the handwavium weapon design will be itself specifically feeding power to the life support systems.
Furthermore, your description of the power suppressors makes no logical sense. If they shut power systems down without affecting life support, what's powering the life support?
Some art constructions certainly dwarf the size of aircraft carriers, but, agreed, not their complexity. However, there are ways of minimising those problems.
