Well the Consortium did start out as a human enterprise. It was only after they got their power that they distanced themselves physically, culturally, genetically. They still control sizable monopolies in the rest of humanities cultural sphere (among other species). And it is still their modus operandi to buy their way into any avenue in which they do not have some form of sociological control. The Consortium believes in controlling the universe by putting a chicken in every pot and a finger in every pie. That said, being silent partners to PharmCo would work just as well for my scheming.

In any case, it's your baby, I just want to brand it.
