Serieförfattaren J. Michael Straczynski diskuterar specifikt dessa frågor på Midwinter Lurker Guide -sidan;
MW : Couldn't Ironheart have removed Control? Was Talia the original personality?
JMS : Control was the construct. The alternate personality was dormant at the time Ironheart was there. Remember that Ironheart was not seeing Talia under the best of conditions...he was fighting hard NOT to use his abilities, for any reason, because it created mindquakes...he was pulling everything IN. And later he was shot, also not a good position.
MW: Does Psi Corps have Talia's gift now? Isn't that a problem?
JMS: Logically, yes, that would eventually pose a problem.
MW : Was the new personality formed by modifying Talia's, or was it created from scratch?
JMS : I'd rather let this aspect slide for the moment.
Som du kan se från intervjun erkänner han i grunden att sättet på vilket hennes karaktär var borttagen var klumpigt och gjorde ingen mening. Ursprungligen skulle personligheten "kontroll" vara Laurel Takashima men när hennes karaktär togs bort (efter ett enda avsnitt) lämnade han i den alternativa personlighetens delmall som en metaforisk fälldörr , så att han kan ta bort en besvärlig skådespelare längre ner på vägen.
