What they do out of courtesy and what they are required to do are two different things. The devs did not approach any of the current Navy, Police, Intelligence, or terrorist factions that have BCs about the BC changes. They did not approach the Unioners about the changes to the Arbeiter. Why are the Order so important that they specifically need to be approached about the Geb? Hint: they aren't. They're no more special than any other faction.
