Except they haven't seen the error in their methods. That would involve them *stopping*.

What I find unbelievable is the fact that no one knows what the Crucible does. There were blueprints, those ought to give you some idea of how it works. And if we didn't know what it does, why would we think it would even be useful in the first place?
