gollark: This would also provide an excuse for having a very overengineered power grid.
gollark: I could, at least, do stuff like install spatial IO "teleporters", and install spatial IO systems in random corridors.
gollark: Unfortunately, we don't have [REDACTED], so I can't really do non-euclidean spaces without (very obvious) spatial IO hacks.

gollark: Also suspiciously easy door locks.
