SS, your elementary scale makes sense. I'm thinking that industrial families such as the Glukkons and Vykkers rank pretty much equally in the macrocosmic scale of society, though these seem to be pretty major industrial strengths in Mudos, so maybe there are weaker, less wealthy families, which would still stand on much the same ground as the Cartel, but being that it is a technocratic society, simply can't exhibit as much power.
Personally, I would love to see the hierarchy of the Vykkers Conglomerate, but that's going slightly off-topic.
