Two things: 1. Flak burst Vs. Shield glare; 2. Weak shields

In the end it probably doesn't matter. We see N-1 shields being hull hugging, yet they're flying through a field of those same explosions when a squadron of them attacks the Trade Federation droid ship.

This would be the final nail in the whole cloud theory's coffin.

They've prided themselves on the 'let's keep it exceedingly simple for explanations' for what, a decade almost? As a group; individually, it probably goes back longer. That way, they can claim uber civilization status by using only the most basic concepts in the largest way possible. But, this is also coming from a group that will believe that things sent into hyperspace are changed into tachyonic matter, while still not having their complex mass/energy changed in the slightest, even though they are changing from baryonic to tachyonic, which would change the complex mass/energy and is in opposition to us seeing baryonic matter continuing to stay like baryonic matter in hyperspace. They are my car wrreck that I can't look away from. I've actually really tried to get out of the debate...but I can't just get away from it.
