Look, the bug will be useful for first re-establishment of communications, but not very practical in the long run. Taking the bug is a good idea, but the dwarf needs engine upgrades, and if we can mine stuff we get ores to sell. And I don't think the bug has much storeage space for ores.

For smeg's sakes, as the most senior type person on this crew we are taking the bug, my decision is final.

Sorry colonel, but Oberon and Krytie have a point...
