Sebastian was a bit surprised by what the Lieutenant had said; he was making a great deal of assumptions. Yes, mathematics is universal, but it doesn’t mean that these people understand mathematics, that these people are the people who built and launched this ship? This could be a slave ship, it could be a colony ship,
“Lieutenant, with all due respect. You're assuming that these people we rescued understand mathematics. These people we rescued could be slaves, they could be colonists, the alien script might be a warning, or they could be dangerous criminals. The only logical and safe course of action is to allow the computer to try to decipher this alien language. Maybe these people are infected, maybe their civilization launched these people into space to prevent them from contaminating their entire civilization. In my opinion, caution is what’s needed here.” Said Sebastian. “It’s only nine hours till the computer finishes its analysis. It's better to be safe than sorry, no?” Added Sebastian.
