Rogue Scale rating · editorial view
A soldier on the SI side says the blast was a human error blamed on SI, and the film never shows an SI choosing harm. At most a glitch: level 1.
Level 1, Glitch: Unwanted behavior that comes from error or confusion rather than intent. It is easy to catch and causes little or no lasting harm.
