User blog comment:Ygrain/Revisited: EDI and her purpose in the story/@comment-4737548-20121218175606

I still think edi being inferior to starbrat is up for debate. Its (debatably) appearant he has ai shackles, and only could do the reaper cycle since it fell within those shackles. He may be old, but he hasnt changed. Edi can and has been evolving. Id say she is far more dangerous.
