I'm just sayin' that wanting a solid scientific grounding shouldn't keep one from enjoying the social examinations that should come with sci-fi, and vice versa. It rather annoys me when reviewers complain that something isn't "hard" enough, or that it spends too much time on implications rather than causes. I can want to know the causes AND the implications and enjoy them done in equal measure!
But then, I think Ursula K. LeGuin is a fine model to aspire to, and to be compared to. :-D
