      That makes perfect sense honestly. Human society and industry is kind of held back by our inability to work together in large groups effectively. A species that is already accommodated via biology to operate in large groups toward a single shared goal, would be superior.

      Unless they attacked first, they’d probably be fine. While the Starship Troopers government was a weird combination of libertarian and fascist, the latter more in the movies but the book was too, they didn’t seem to be spoiling for a fight until they were attacked. Unless Buenos Aires was a false flag operation to drum up support for the war, and honestly I wouldn’t be too surprised if that was Verhoeven’s intention in the first movie. That man had Things To Say with the world building. I’m pretty sure Heinlein didn’t intend that in the book, though it’s been years since I’ve read it.

    Both species even had a similar fashion of distance communication.
