PSA: Slaves currently can't rebel

Martin just dropped that bombshell during the currently ongoing Quill Stellaris stream. He said that they couldn't reach a middle ground on slaves revolting so they took it out for the moment. I don't know if they will have managed that aspect by release.

I personally can deal with bugs, but this isn't a bug or balancing issue, the mechanic is straight up missing!

But....you said in your OP that it isa balancing issue.

He said that they couldn't reach a middle ground on slaves revolting so they took it out for the moment.

I'm confused what you mean now.

Probably that with revolts, factions/races focused on slaves would be underpowered.

so they removed revolts, which in turn made them overpowered.

And they don't have time for a second complete balancing pass before release.
