@Jaded-Raven I'm not sure you read my OP properly. The UTF aren't like the Outworld Investigation Agency, they're a bunch of bigots who seek to destroy all the other worlds and species, and humans who disagree with their views, like pretty much all of the heroic ones.
@Chrome Some have said, and are probably still saying, that Stryker and the Cyborgs were already undermining the kung-fu feel of the series. In what way would this organization do so even more?
Numerosity. The more counterexamples you give in a wrok for the established overall theme, the more you move away from it.
Example: the world of MAGUS has repeating mechanical crossbows, standing professional armies, industrial level production. Yet it had to be made clear by it's creators that despite being fantasy it is NOT medieval fantasy (having mage and knightly orders, empires, generally steel based combat) because initially it was presented as such.
In short: it wasn't apparent at first that this was not a Tolkienesque medieval setting, but a more advanced one - simply because those elements appeared later. Public conceptions were that this is a medieval world, the intention however was never such.
