@@maasro I think it's interesting to take this idea even further. Maybe there were no advancements, but they just imagine prosperity and progress because of Vectron. Maybe they don't even imagine. The closest thing they do to imply the future is a) the decorations and dress, which could easily just be religious iconography, and b) the phrase "galactic endeavor". But notice they didn't say INTERgalactic endeavor. In our society, without access to other galaxies, ALL endeavors are galactic endeavors. They just like the crisp snappy uniforms and snazzy decor. You know, like Catholics.

And also, based on their tolerance of the 4th guy's blasphemy in the first place, going far further than implying Vectron had other parts they didn't agree with, he questioned Vectron altogether, so if that didn't lead to violence, why would saying he had a gourd cause that?

There are many great M&W sketches, Homeopathic hospital, WW2 pilots, brain surgeon at party, corner shop alcoholic, the list is endless but this Vectron sketch is probably the best.

I am convinced this is 40k (replace Vectron with the Emperor of mankind). There was never an emperor, only Malcador and the Primarchs. The Primarchs aren't even related, but they were all so similar in power and stature, they kept making jokes in reference to some shared father figure, the Emperor of mankind and it caught on really hard.
