I've been thinking about the Plug and Play operations of Knightmare Frames since the first episode and I don't know the answer. Did Lancelot really 'fight' Lelouch, though? He (the latter) was basically trying to get away. He fought the rebels first, and while the rebels probably aren't that experienced in combat mechs, they've seen more actual fighting than Suzaku. I guess my point is, someone who's flying an F-22 without any prior flight experience outside simulators shouldn't be able to down a squadron of semi-experienced Harriers effortlessly?
Ah, but as demonstrated in Episode 7, Geass is useless in the battlefield. Plus it has caveats. War machines by nature cannot have too many, but like how even the best-made tanks have weaknesses---it needs some. Lancelot's been around for ten episodes and so far I'd like a little counterbalance. As the original commenter said, Lancelot and Suzaku are counterbalances for Lelouch, Geass and Order. And while Geass and Order have their counterbalances (limitations, lack of training/professionalism) Lancelot has none. I'm just trying to point out how the thing can irritate people.
Not disagreeing with that. While I'm pretty certain Kyoto isn't synonymous with JLF, it's still pretty "....eh?" that Japan still has this kind of operations. I wish they'd give the Order serviceable decent models that requires more brains on the user's side instead, but oh well. :p
