Directional Reflection Shield (DRS)

[Shannon]

Shouldn't the NDRS be just as effective - we're it a stand-alone program - for "removing the sting" and for "plugging your ears" than the DRS? So e.g. changing the shield type in DMSI would potentially make misbehavers starts behaving better after the fact, but it wouldn't otherwise make you more immune to negative reactions?

This actually seems very interesting to me since stuff like approaching was always very hard for me, not for caring that much what the girl would think, but more just instinctually wary of all kinds of negative attention from everyone present.. Though with how my life is now, I wouldn't have that many opportunities to benefit from this.

My theory is that NDRS may not be as effective because it does nothing to stop the attack.  It simply continues to use your energy to reflect it.  That expended energy should be low, and easily maintained, but you still have to deal with it.  DRS, on the other hand, returns to sender.  Same exact energy requirements, but now the attack is changing almost instantly, and ending relatively shortly.  I'm not entirely sure all of what's going on, but I see that DRS stand alone seems to be producing significantly different results than NDRS-embedded.

We will have to be careful where we use DRS, though.  Sometimes it is important to have that communication band open.
