In theory, how much can a Sophon do?
I'm about halfway into book two, so I wouldn't be surprised if they are used in additional clever ways in the next half of the series, but I just can't stop wondering about their capabilities.
Can't high energy particles flip bits in computers? I'm surprised that hasn't been explored yet, but I'm probably overestimating what that would do.
How much of an effect could a single proton (or a small handful) have on the macroscopic level in theory?
...let me know if I can just wait and see :>
