Article makes an unexplained logical jump.
[edit]> AREE's unique feature is the proposal to use a mechanical analog computer instead of the more powerful, electronic digital computers used in other robotic spacecraft, which are not tolerant to the high temperatures of Venus.
This sentence contains an unexplained logical jump. The choice is not purely between solid-state electronics (semiconductor or vacuum tube based) and mechanical computers, but electro-mechanical computers also exists (most famously Zuse's relay-based devices). The article jumps over that option without mention, even though electro-mechanical relays (e.g. silver-graphite contactor pairs) could be operational in high-temperature environments where semiconductors and vacuum tubes melt. 188.143.6.200 (talk) 11:49, 31 July 2020 (UTC)
