I agree 100% with Wayne's point here. Lets just build and view each others'
models. If Person X makes a station that doesn't dock with Person Y's ship,
then it is either up to Person X, Person Y, or a third Person Z to either
design a suitable docking mechanism to allow the two to mate or just not
connect.
(Substitute the word species, race, alien, culture, technology, etc for the
word "Person" above, and I think you will get a more realistic idea of how a
real DATIVERSE would be. We are not all living on the same planet after all.)
I have a ship that I consider "macroscale." It's between minifig and microfig
scale. Will the DATIVERSE Board of Architectural Review, not allow me to build
my ship in their DATIVERSE because it doesn't fit the specification of their
earth-centric, minifig-scale view?
