I'm glad you brought this up. As I mentioned to someone in a thread a few
days ago, I'm still undecided on whether the concept of a 4th level Giant is
coherent. Like yourself, I'm currently leaning towards believing it's not.
I was just playing around...
dmb adds:
Maybe "giant" wouldn't be the best word, but it seems pretty clear that
intellectual systems have a kind of immune system, can evolve, grow, spawn
new intellectual systems and otherwise acts like a living creature. The
fourth level doesn't seem as exploitive or lethal as the social level giant,
but it can be ruthless in its own way, I guess.
