Yeah! I mean, I would mainly like them for the “everything you do or learn will be imprinted” function– always kinda wanted a memory backup. And even cooler if they could be used to heal, examine or make upgrades to us like in Uprising (though in the 1982 movie we never really see any of that except for Tron receiving the upgrade from Alan, so I don’t know how deep it goes there).

Then again, there would be problems. Society would have to adapt to the idea that people were constantly recording what they saw in a type of memory as reliable as a video camera…. that would certainly shake some things up. And you’d need a good way to keep your disc safe, because anyone else could make you so very vulnerable by having access to your disc. (Which could lead to some mindblowing expressions of intimacy with someone you trust. But you’d have to REALLY trust them.)

And I’m not sure how I feel about having it also function as a weapon. Personally, I like to spend most of my time in places where I’m reasonably sure no one has a weapon. Not sure how I’d adapt to a world where everyone has to carry around a deadly weapon all the time because it’s also your brain.

I do like the headcanon that in Encom, everyone does have a disc, but not everyone has it set up to work as a weapon– nor does everyone carry it all the time (Yori and her coworkers didn’t have theirs with them at work).
