I understand you’re whole point about Bungie not being concerned about adding Siva into the game with its current state. I’m not going to focus on that. Rather, I’m going to focus on Quicksilver vs Siva. 1., Siva is more aesthetically extreme and pleasing than quicksilver. Quicksilver just looks like metal, which we can get anywhere else, while Siva has these glowing red strips, these airborn nanite swarms, and is shown to peel back and consume other material in its replication, unlike Quicksilver. It’s why people want Siva over quicksilver. 2. Just because there is a better version of Siva doesn’t mean Siva is useless. It’s like a crossbow vs a gun. While Quicksilver is more dangerous than Siva if used maliciously, a crossbow can still hurt and damage. 3. Besides a couple of weapons, which like Outbreak Perfected, are isolated clusters of Quicksilver (Quicksilver Storm and new Axe) or inert and solid formations of the Nanites, no longer capable of their own replication (The Machinegun and heavy Glaive) we don’t really have access to Quicksilver. It’s confusing how a bunch of random Psions got access to quicksilver, especially since there has been no mention of Caital and Saladin in the season dealing with the remains of Siva and alternate timeline Red Legionaries.

D1 has a much lower player count and the servers aren't even close to being shut down. That's the beauty of the hybrid model B are running there. It allows them to keep the game online at minimum cost. Even after B stop releasing new content the game will remain playable for a number of years.

Then show me Sony’s or Bungie’s financials. Player numbers are down that is a fact but we have no idea how that translates into income. The game is not on a monthly pay cycle. It cannot just simply be shutdown.
