Well that took a wild, albeit unsurprising turn at the end (bringing in race). Though I do still wonder if there ends up being actual material improvements on brain scans being behavior predictors or if it truly stays in science fiction (probably science fiction). Very evocative of the anime Psycho Pass.

> Psycho-Pass is set in a futuristic Japan governed by the Sibyl System, a powerful biomechatronic computer network which continually monitors the psychological traits of Japanese citizens using a "cymatic scan." The resulting psychometric assessment is called a Psycho-Pass, which includes a numeric Crime Coefficient index, revealing the citizen's criminality potential, and a color-coded Hue, alerting law enforcement to other data... When a targeted individual's Crime Coefficient index exceeds the accepted threshold (100), they are pursued, apprehended, and either arrested or killed by the field officers of the Crime Investigation Department of the Ministry of Welfare's Public Safety Bureau.
