Dunque l'iperuranio è quel mondo oltre la volta celeste che è sempre esistito in cui vi sono le idee immutabili e perfette, raggiungibile solo dall' intelletto, non tangibile dagli enti terreni e corruttibili. Secondo Platone l' Iperuranio è quella zona al di là del cielo (da cui il nome) dove risiedono le idee.

La dottrina delle idee ad esso collegata era già stata illustrata dall'autore nel dialogo Repubblica, considerato dai critici precedente al Fedro. L' Iperuranio, o mondo delle idee, è un concetto proprio di Platone espresso nel Fedro. We know it's not a laser, or a rifle-musket firing minie balls, or an assault rifle. 45 caliber bullets at 830 feet per second, or an MP40 firing a 124 grain 9mm at 1300 feet per second! Or they might have switched to 115 grain 9mm bullets! What if they're using late-war E08 iron core bullets! What if it's a Thompson, not a Grease Gun firing the same ammo! It's an unknowable nightmare!"Īnd the rest of us are like, "It's a freaking submachine gun. You're sitting here endlessly arguing, "But it could be an M3 Grease Gun firing 230 grain. We understand that it's the damage profile that matters and that 'railgun' is a broad term for a category of slug-throwers somewhat more effective than the ones we broadly categorize as 'coilguns', but not as effective as the ones we categorize as 'advanced railguns.' No one but you really believes that every civilization in the galaxy is using the exact same design of railgun, with the exact same projectiles that travel at exactly the same velocity, so precisely the same that parts and ammunition would be interchangeable between weapons developed a galaxy apart by species of completely different mentalities and body types. Why are you dragging out all these nonsense hypotheticals to try and obfuscate a very simple game feature?

Why on earth would there be a dozen different bullets for each gun? To go back to my earlier example, were there dozens of different types of bullet that an MG42 might fire? And, see again point one. WHY would the gun be using an increased or decreased charge, and why would it matter? See point one. If there are multiple guns firing the same projectile at the same velocity, they're effectively the same class of gun.
