Every MTA faction had their strengths and specialties.
The Survivalist Faction possessed an open mindset and mastered a high degree of eclectic alien and unconventional technologies.
The Transhumanist Faction conducted the deepest studies in the field of human transcendence.
The Mech Supremacist Faction sought to make mechs as ubiquitous as possible by increasing their value proposition with the help of more effective technological advancements.
Much of these factions actually overlapped with each other. None of them were extreme enough to exclude technology that was more aligned with the other factions of the Mech Trade Association.
This was because every faction was formed by large coalitions of like-minded high-ranking mech pilots and mech designers.
Each of them may have gathered together in order to advance their common causes, but they were individually quite diverse and comprehensive.
