The only problem I see with this is that things fail. They break. If you
have
it "fail hard" the weapon is useless if the chip is fried, or if dirt
clogs
the works, or the thumb scanner/retina scanner is marred due to laser
scoring,
or whatever. If you "fail soft", the enemy just wrecks the chip and uses
the
weapon. 

I'm not saying they won't try this, or do this, I'm just saying I'm glad
I'm
not using the equipment during the "break in" period. *S*
