Thank you for the support! You guys and grrls are awesome!

While Dabbler seems like the obvious choice for space adventures, they already have a crew of stellar adventurers to give them the tour. Additionally, Dabbler is one of the team's powerhouses... well, powerhouse isn't quite the right word, but she is one of the team's heavier hitters due to her experience and flexibility. Yes, Max and Sydney can probably get back to Earth almost instantly, but you never know. Does Sydney's Aetherium Causeway work if she's on a ship traveling FTL or jumping between gates? They don't know, and Max wanted to minimize the impact of her and Sydney's absence.

In private, Max has described Digit being almost as smart as Dabbler in certain fields, and almost as dumb as Heatwave in every other field. There's also some evidence that Digit is a super-science enchanter. That is, some of the things she's made can't be replicated by others. It seems that she somehow imbues some of her gadgets with an extension of her powers. Sort of a telekinesis, matter rearranging/summoning/dismissing sort of affair. Where else does all that chain come from?
