Was vince purposely chosen (spoilers for whole series)
this mostly depends on two questions. How early did Charles know about Vince. I know assasins were sent after globe but idk if Charles knew Vince was also there and his life was also being threatened. He would have killed Vince given reason no doubt but i don't see him purposely trying to end his life if not given a reason to back when he was a little kid so I'm not really sure if he was aware of Vince until his time in lander. And the other part this depends on was Charles evolved enough in the procedure to even be able to pick certain people past Alice because we know he kept himself as distanced as possible so his mind couldn't be read. Im also not sure what the benefits there would be of him purposely choosing Vince but the odds of Vince getting chosen off just luck are incredible slim.
the only reason this came to mind is because I saw another post talking about nicks luck ability as a powered and if they had part to do with Vince being chosen.
