My idea earlier was that this move was more confrontational, and therefore could entrench even those who marginally support the cultural status quo. The "planting a seed" approach the Psyke advocates is, to me, more of a cultural and education move - more subtle, more long term - instead of creating a specific and immediate conflict.
