It has to be. While I'm inside the parameters of what I'm allowed to do, I have quite a bit of power - I can authorize tactical operations, deploy personnel, distribute weaponry and supplies, continue to operate my interdimensional warship without oversight... there are a lot of broad strokes I can take with it. But if I get lax and I start making mistakes... I lose the authority to use that power, and that puts people - both the ones under my command, and civilians on the worlds we're trying to protect - in danger. I will not let that happen.
