I live and die by hyaluronic acid. It doesn’t create permanent changes AFAIK but makes a massive difference for me day to day — plus or minus 5 years depending.

Ah, thanks! So (venom, 0 weapons, 0 armor, 10 speed) > (no antivenom, 100 weapons, 100 armor, 9 speed)? Thanks!

Point of clarification: Does venom/antivenom merely determine the direction of the predator/prey relationship, and then the ordinary numerical comparison of predator weapons vs. prey (weapons + armor) determines whether predation occurs?
