Though rumors of these secret manufacturing plants abound, the Empire has yet to find any evidence of Incom’s defiance.

Though Incom recommends regular memory wipes to ensure that the astromech doesn’t develop any quirks or personality flaws that can be dangerous in a fight, some pilots allow their astromechs to develop personalities, better enabling them to predict and respond to the pilot’s actions.
