 One thing that did bemuse me was that they hosed over his recruitment bonus for joining the teleportation interstellar death squad (at age ten or something? They just sleeved him right into an adult body) and shoved his sister into a lovely orphanage instead of getting her adopted into a family. I would have thought having loyal teleporting deathsquads would be a priority for this kind of government and it was such a minor thing. I can absolutely see an rear end in a top hat regime being that petty but then why did they then actually give his sister serious money, new sleeves, clones, etc when she betrayed Quell? It would seem more in character to just never spin her back up and trash the recording.
