I haven't actually looked at this as one of the options I've been toying

with, but my gut feeling would be that it takes away their ability to go

hide once hurt. SV need to be able to get out of harms way damn smart 
because they crumble faster than other races.

Funny I have had someone tell me that PH would run over the KV and not
