EBP, I understand your point...but that's not<em>really</em>an equivalence choice.  Certain skills in EP are ones that you will<em>absolutely</em>use, such as Interfacing or Networking.  The corebook flat out tells the reader<strong><em>you are stupid</em></strong>if you don't acquire Networking and a couple of other skills.  And even if you're not a hacker, and don't need Infosec, you need Interfacing to interact with most anything electronic, which is practically everything in this setting.<br/><br/>A second body, on the other hand, is not so necessary.  As long as you're smart and play it right, you can theoretically go a whole game without needing to resurrect.  Hell, the game heavily encourages you<em>not</em>to, even though the technology is available and abundant.<br/><br/>I don't mean to be rude, if I come off that way, but it just seems like to me this is a problem that the EP boys haven't addressed.
