What does this suggestion add:
When SCP-008-2 instances are active, ERT should invite 9 total members to combat it instead of the 3 that it currently does. This can be achieved by specifically incrementing the value of breached SCPs by 3, which also has the effect of preventing additional SCPs from being hacked out during an ongoing 008 breach. The change targets the fact that breaches of 008 are almost almost uncontainable past a certain threshold, not only due to the singular team of ERT deployed, but the inability of Foundation forces to combat intruders hacking out SCPs deep in the 008-infested HCZ.
Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
No
Possible Positives of the suggestion:
This addition makes long-lasting 008 breaches, especially in tandem with other SCP breaches, much more manageable and fun to combat for all sides. 3 ERT teams as well as stopping GOIs from perpetuating code blacks indefinitely gives the Foundation a fighting chance to take back the site. It can also inherently benefit CI since they can cause mass death and chaos with less of a chance that their work will go to waste.

No
Possible Positives of the suggestion:
- Equivalent-powered force for an equivalent-powered threat
- RP continuity is maintained as RP resets due to nukes are less prevalent
- 008 breaches can't be perpetuated essentially risk-free
- GOIs who successfully exfiltrate 008 syringes have a higher likelihood of being able to reap the rewards (samples)
- If no other breached SCPs can break bulkheads, bulkheads and tesla gates are impenetrable barriers that seem unfairly rewarded
- Passive RP may be interrupted for long periods as indefinite 008-2 instances and 9 ERT throw themselves at each other
