Yes, Snak3, we go the opposite way because we propose benefits in return for letting us govern over the systems. It's a fair exchange and one that doesn't hurt anyone. Plus, the already-mentioned fact that they're characters that can be easily talked to by anyone else already is a big plus from the rigid structure you'd see from the government departments.
If it doesn't work, then the system we created will just as fast be removed and we'll return to the status quo.
