    • To be clear, the reasons I would like to replace the honk and eyeball scanning would not be to drag out exploration time, but to give the game play:
      • A modicum of player-skill, along with a suitable minor skill-based reward
      • A feeling of verisimilitude, that you’re operating advanced sensor equipment like a boss
      • Satisfying processes, improved visual/audio/interactions
      • A reduction required super cruise travel, so you only need to travel to a planet if you’re definitely interested in investigating it
