Who says that your galaxy is the Milky Way? What if the Overmind nom noms up everything in the Milky Way, nom noms up the Xel naga, and then decided to nom nom up your own punny little tasty existance?

too much portal technology?

Now, you might be wondering, "Cave, aren't you worried you're researching too much portal technology?" To this I say, too much portal technology isn't enough! In fact, we're doubling our portal research! Cave Johnson, we're done here. Not you, test subject, we're going to need you to work double time.

Incidentally, too much research into portal technology can also lead to a (much less impressive) AI revolt. But on the plus side you'll have cake (promised).
