People are talking about something called "prescient".  What is it?
What jobs does it do?  Is there a drawback in these jobs?  If those
topics were discussed, I did not see it.  But they are the most important
questions about that something,

The discussion is focusing on practical issues of merging them, but we
should also think about whether the presence of this facility has any
drawbacks.

Perhaps "prescient" is just "more of the same," convenient features
with no deep implications.  Let's have a discussion of what it does,
so we can see whether that is true or not.
