See, that's exactly the type of thing I'd like to see hinted at. It's possible that the two of them came into the program in different ways, but what this describes just makes so much sense. It's also a bit funny that more than one person has said to me that KR and MR just "don't look Russian at all" but of course that fits too.
On one hand it almost makes me imagine that things were really different for Elizabeth, and that this is why she seems to have a real mentor in Zhukov perhaps because she scored so well in the "morally sound" and "strong personality" areas, with skills in languages too. But I'd love it if Philip got pulled in from a very different angle.
