Daodan technology will attract human attackers so Avatara was tasked to create secure cell communication. An imago has enough Oni clusters to perform [[wikipedia:Post-quantum_cryptography|post-quantum cryptography]] rendering the Daodan immune against remote attacks who also use quantum computers. However, PQC wasn't implemented due to lack of dev time.

====Memory delta patches====
Fullbody simulation revieled that a physical brain can fully heal but memories can be lost forever when the injury was too big.
As consequence Avatara implemented the creation and re-integration of memory delta patches. Daodan hosts have the ability to store a backup of their brain as DNA capsules (main memory chromosomes). The problem is delta patches start forming as soon as brain cells are getting transfromed while a full backup (reference for the deltas) is only created when the host reaches Imago stage and Mai's Imago stage remained uncomplete.
However, Mai has another source for a full brain backup. Her first brain scans which were used to create the engrams for Shinatama.
Delta patches can be used on an existing brain to restore a region. If a brain is completely destroyed, the Daodan tries to restore the full backup first and then applies the deltas.
The main backup is supposed to be renewed every year or few years.
New story idea: During RS (and the Phönix wars?) Mai is taken in as soldier and loses her memories during a series of fights. Hitman destroy her with bullets and explosives but she can always regenerate by static metamorphosis. She does not rememeber Shinatama and turn "evil" at some point. One day Muro pushes her into true imago stage and her memories begin to fully come back.
The life of Mai is a drama. She is the embodiment of risks and chances of future technology. For dramaturgic effect her recovery must have a high cost. (Greek tragedy type 2? The hero doesn't die in the end, he survivied because he already suffered so much, like Odysseus.)
Restoring her memories makes her reject Phönix which results in forming of factions and weakens the organization as a whole. Some of her Phönix friends turn out to be her new, old enemies... She, as another embodiment of the Phönix, lived many lifes; the title Phönix was also hold by Griffin after being revived with a GATC "spare". However, the organization as such repeately used advanced SLD engramm patterning to give her fake memoies when she died once again. The turned her into a weapon and didn't really care about her identity and free will.

I don't think this will happen in RS, but in later sequels. It's better to write it down than forgetting it again after a while.
