I find harder sci-fi more interesting because a lot of light sci-fi really just ends up being "magic except with a cool tech aesthetic"
I don't mean for it to very straight sci-fi, because then the entire thing (superluminal speeds, anyone?) would be impossible, but I would like to avoid "explaining" eldrich beings that created a do-anything particle. Just think "slightly harder Star Trek".
Example: Instead of being armed with a Phazer, with the settings "stun", "shoot", and "kill", you have a gun, with the settings "no bullet", "bullet", and "more bullet".
