First, as a human being, I'm offended at the fact that Earth is Level 2.

According to Technology Levels...

Level 3

 * Internal Combustion Engines
 * Nuclear Fission Technology
 * Prypiatosian-B Containment Suits
 * Steam Engines
 * Universal Translators
 * Wires

Level 4

 * Anti-Gravity Projectors (some models)
 * Broadcast Signal
 * Nuclear Fusion Technology
 * Nuclear Fusion Grenades
 * Remedial Biological Technology
 * Simple Nanotechnology

We have Combustion Engines, Nuclear Fission Technology, Steam Engines, and Wires. All of these from Level 3. We also Broadcast signals, and I'm sure we have (or at least in the process of) developing Nanotechnology. So my question is: Why is Earth Level 2?

Do you have to have made ALL of the things listed above to be a new level? And if Earth is a Level 2 planet, how are even allowed to have level 3 tech?
