Zhdez medicine

I've established that Zhdez medicine is the most advanced, by a large margin, both because of their psionic ability and because they've focused more on it. I've been thinking about what impact it has on the Ring:as Zhdez draw back their technological infrastructure. Manufactured items can be shipped from factories deeper into Zhdez territory, but medical care tends to need to be a little more local.

Inukari are going to have some reluctance to trust Zhdez psi-related technology, up until they realize the Zhdez are the only hope they have of getting some types of advanced care, especially life-extending care.

Some Inukari (and Terrans, to a lesser extent given the open hostilities) will want to visit Zhdez specialists, which is an interesting prospect. A lot of them will decide to stay, either because they've discovered it's somewhat more of a post-scarcity utopia (their explanation) or because they've been absorbed into the Borg (the suspicion of their family and friends).

I realized changes in how I do the blog thing means I can't stack up a buffer and auto-run it while I'm in the TL7 Terran medical facility, so I will backfill later, I guess.
