All the entirely accurate math regarding acceleration and the effects of g forces is applicable in the universe we find ourselves IRL. However, the Stars! universe obviously has a different set of Laws of Physics.

The acceleration effects described for the mass packet would apply as well for the acceleration of a space ship from zero to warp10. For that matter, the description of the acceleration deconstructing matter would apply as well to Ironium as to population. So obviously there are other, as yet undiscovered by us, laws of physics involved here.

My understanding of the Stars! description of warp drives is that they are inertialess. You go from here Teleport

there via skips through space, rather than through space itself, sort of like a series of directed WHs. Given this, I'm not sure why one couldn't load a packet with population and fire them.
