I thought Dehane’s “host family” amounted to only several hundred people. I’m surprised they aren’t taking the random survivors they find as slaves to maintain biodiversity. The alternative is their enclave tends increasingly toward being drooling idiots as they increasingly inbreed over suceeding generations.
Maybe Dehane *likes* having an inbred drooling idiot host?
The other alternative is they have the technology to screen for and correct gene defects either at conception or some time later. But technology breaks down.
