So for characters who have cybernetics/robotics or keep getting mistaken for one: what is the difference between low/middle class augmentations vs upper class? In terms of like form of the augmentations but also in terms of ostentatiousness of augmentation as you move through the social strata. Is it an indication of higher social status if you've literally grafted some kind of sweet cybernetic wetware on your face that lets you connect to the internet and watch all your soaps and check your email AND fixes your nearsightedness, vs just replacing your eyes with mechanical/electronic ones? Or are there like fashions in augmentation (if you're somebody who can afford to care about that)?
