So how do we change the 501st "accuracy"?
Is it the community's opinion about whether something is correct?
Or is it whether something correct is correct?
501st standards are constantly evolving. If a member of the community/detachment discovers a more accurate material, and has sufficient evidence to support it, the CRLs are updated. So yes, it goes by members of the community, BUT they need to show any evidence/proof they may have to support their claim, so if there is any evidence something is correct, then of course THAT would be what is desired. So the ultimate goal is "if something is correct, its correct". The legion of course trys to get the most accurate information, but hey, we are all human and can only do so much. Obviously some things can never be found out/proven for sure, so we have to go on the closest possible thing, thats just the nature of trying to replicate something from so long ago, as im sure you know.
I agree there needs to be standards, but are you telling me that if I show up with my new vest and suit and the material doesn't have the reverse side out or whatever (not correct btw) or is made out of a material more correct than tackle twill, I will be considered less accurate than somebody's parts that are actually less accurate? That's messed up.
No, the legion basic standards wouldn't take the material to that depth. Again, if you have proof something is or isnt correct, it can affect the legion CRL's like i said above..they are constantly evolving.
This disscussion was for level2..which DOES take the material into that depth. The point of this discussion is to determine if there is a better option than what we have been using. Keeping in mind, it has to be obtainable...if its a super rare material, it just discourages people...so there has to be a happy medium. Its not an easy task. Now for level3, it would likely have to be the absolute correct to the best of our knowledge.
