I dont understand and invite you to augue a bit more. .

"trying to come up with a reason why the Citadel did not explode supernova-style rather than consider the possibility that the explosions of the mass relays here are different from that in Arrival"

I dont see how these are related. In stating way the Citadel does not explode i was merely answering a previously made question on why the Citadel did not overload like the others. The issue of the Citadel was a simple one in my opinion in that the relay inside wasnt on. And i never implied or indicated the relays going supernova was the only opition. I highlighted it as ONE POSSIBLE option.

The issue of what happens if they simply exploded in a controled manner (which is more likely) is more a point of contention in this conversation then if the relays blew up, since the relays were undeniably destroyed. And if you feel i am being pesimistic about that then i would see reason in that. It is a cynical argument that the victory fleet will stave. It is one gained through logic but i would understand your issues with it. But the issue you had with my pessamism is something that really i made no comment on.

So i dont understand. Can you pease detail what you meant?
