The four minds proceed seamlessly to have their argument through Sue.
One thinks the buggers can never be trusted and landing the fleet will be suicide, that they should attack now while they'll have surprise and the fleet can be salvaged. One thinks that if they're going to trust the kids to handle the war they would be fools not to trust them to handle peace. One thinks that the buggers' complete standstill is a reasonable sign of goodwill and they should put Sue in a link with buggers and human diplomats and use him as a relay to come up with a treaty which may or may not bear any resemblance to what Aegis came up with. One thinks the buggers should be wiped out just to demonstrate to any other aliens that humans run into in the future that there is no fucking with the human race.
