no that's basically the long and short of it tbh

[okay fiiiiine, he'll offer context properly]

most of this was before my time so i'm kind of sparse on details but basically japan in my world introduced something called the sybil system a couple decades ago based on their new tech that could scan people's brains and give you this whole detailed report on how like, stable and balanced and stuff they are and how likely they are to commit a crime

if your brain's good enough you get to live an ordinary life
if it's not, you get locked up in an isolation facility until you die

unless the same tech says you're smart enough, anyway, then you can work for the government to round up other people with janky brains until you die instead and get a slightly bigger cage for your trouble
