While it is correct that the 3I has reached TL15 and none of the
surrounding states have to any great degree (except possibly the
Hivers), astrographically the 3I will have a problem applying that
superiority to a war with the Zhodani - the Hi-pop TL15 centres are on
the other side of the Corridor. Also, TL15 isn't that much better than TL14.
Besides, frankly the 3I is shit at waging war.
