Someone linked me to that before and what I read seemed a little lacking in details, but this, showing up elsewhere with the same points and adding the part about crystals and saying this was theorized before... IDK, it sounds like these "molecules of light" won't work outside of a super-cold environment... if they get two or better yet three to connect, and at a higher temperature, I'll take back my harsh words against 343i about "hard light"-- I reserve the right to not be so nice if I find out they had no idea any of this existed or was theorized, though.
