Yeah, it overloaded their energy collection sail. Though humanity solved M theory in that setting so maybe they can derive energy from neutrinos… somehow.
Yea interesting ... maybe it makes quite a bit of sense (for sci-fi) ... a gush of neutrinos (if that makes sense at all) would likely be unpredictable as they could come from some distant astronomical event but precede any other signs of the event occurring (such as light or other frequencies)
