Comment on How many people would a generation ship need to have for inbreeding to not be an issue?

In the Galaxy’s Edge series this is tangentially addressed, the TLDR is that there are other implications of being on a ship for generations that outweigh the genetic problems. The Savages have a well earned title fwiw both in origin and action. It is a bleak outlook on the concept but I don’t think it is farfetched given everything we are living through right now.
