I think the ability to perform those tasks just as easily in orbit as on
earth will facilitate the movement of families to orbit rather than strictly
pioneers. If a Medical Researchers doing work that requires zero-g has a
spouse that is a computer programmer would not that person be more willing
to do this work if their spouse was allowed to go along without having to
quit working? Once a few families begin the movement it will start to snow
ball into wholesale settlement.
