I had forgotten that. That would have interesting implications for cast and societal hierarchy. I need to read more stuff on that again, and the leaked scripts from earlier seasons too I hear also have interesting little bits of info on lore; I guess in this case, more of intended lore.

>So it's like motorcycles in this world; 2500 cages for every free bike. However you play it up, riding makes you part of an elite group.
And a sense of brotherhood as well. Though different from a group you joined versus a unicorn, a immutable state you are born into.
