Why was Tech’s armor mostly white?
A lot of discussion I've read point to practical reasons – white armor could help keep him and his equipment cooler, or maybe he just didn’t care enough about customization to change it. This may not be a unique view at all, but I’ve also been thinking about symbolism. To me, the white feels almost emblematic of Tech as a savior figure. In many traditions, including Christian theology, white represents purity, righteousness, and triumph. I’m not religious myself, and if Tech were real, he probably wouldn’t be either. Still, I can’t help but imagine his white armor as a quiet symbol of the salvation he would bring to the team through his sacrifice.
