We're here to investigate the fundamentalists, stop all mining efforts, and clean up the records of ALASTAIR's fuck up β right? None of those mission directives involve helping Qorral themselves; they're actually who we're here to stop. We're opposing them in order to preserve the valuable natural resources and so we are, in fact, making a profit off of them. You may care and that's nice of you, but do you really think our bosses give a fuck about what happens to these people?
Newsflash: Did they give a shit when the Reverend was decapitated? Pretty sure the file Abbott and Costello sent out with the transcribed conversation had with our team's Taraxa member had "oops... that sucks!" written all over it. Will they care if more of this population is killed? Would they care if someone shot up this whole backwater city?
No.
They wanna put a stopper in the impending threat to the timeline and aaall the rest of us are expendable, so is there any problem with the added cushion of having some money set aside for when they decide that beaming us home is a waste of precious resources? I don't fucking think so.
