Analysis
Harbinger trees provide a low-tech, no power method of getting rid of bodies without the use of fire or an Electric crematorium.
This is vital for tribal or low-tech settlements who want to reduce the number of potential Shamblers on the map during a Deathpall or similar events, as there is no limit to the number of times a corpse can be turned into a shambler. However, it is only effective as a preventive measure, as shamblers can break free from the roots when raised.
Eating the raw twisted meat provided by the tree does provide a -10 mood thought, however non-cannibal colonists eating raw human meat from corpses provides a -20 mood thought. Therefore, the tree can be used by non-cannibal colonies to recycle human meat into less-negative twisted meat by feeding it corpses if food is dire.
Later on, Harbinger Tree can be used as a means of acquiring twisted meat for some mid and late game recipes, like the Juggernaut serum, without having to call dangerous entities like Fleshbeasts.
