If someone is, say, SOC 18 at character creation, but they don't choose the noble class, should they be noble anyway? For that matter, is SOC an instant way of fitting people into Imperial society regardless of class choice at any SOC level?
What are the class benefits of SOC - do they confer instant officer grades as I allow for OTC graduates (O1)? Should a Duke begin play at O2 or O3, or should his Duchy lower the Rank Promo DC somehow (perhaps by the ability modifier for SOC)?
