I remember reading somewhere that Googlie proposed to offer the Angels a SocPsych<->Gene Splicing deal instead of IndEcon<->Gene Splicing. That would give us the prerequisite for DocLoy, and, one step later, Intellectual Integrity. Googlie consider that tech very useful for the Citizen's Defence Force. On the other side Krysia's Krusader did not consider the CDF so useful.
I can't find anymore where this was originally written, but I'll reply here in the interest of reducing chaos and keeping discussions in the thread where they belong: in this case tech beeline.
Anyway, the reply I wanted to add was that IntInt is also useful for the Spartans for other stuff besides the CDF. Namely non-lethal methods (more useful for the Spartans than for the other factions because of our +1 Police SE) and high morale (to get that last needed morale level for elite units). Besides that it's also a prerequisite for Cyberethics, which leads to Knowledge SE Values. As we can't run Wealth, this is the next best choice for us in peacetime.
That being said, I would equally support going for a Environmental Economics b-line (tree farms & 3+ energy) than for a IntInt b-line.
