I think the point of this thread is not to design a TL 7 without all these things, but to pick and choose. Aliens might have Nuclear Power without Nuclear weapons, but they still have corporations and consumerism, or religion and intellectual property, etc.

This is one of those threads that are all about "How far can we stretch this TL, and still be in it," which is quite handy for alternate world creation.
