You've continued to make changes based on your incorrect conclusion, so I'm assuming you may not have seen my reply on the VotW Talk Page. I'll repost the text of the comment here for convenience:

Sorry, but you're incorrect on this one. Walt himself has said (in print) that VotW is a sequel to Hardwired - although he didn't originally write it with that in mind. If I remember correctly, he explains it in the introduction to Solip: System in the Frankensteins and Foreign Devils short story collection. I'm not going to dig out the book to type up a verbatim quote right now, but he begins by saying something to the effect of "People always ask me why I never wrote a sequel to Hardwired, when in fact it has two sequels." He goes on to explain that VotW was written as a stand-alone book, but that his publisher asked him if he could make it a sequel to Hardwired, because "sequels sell better." Walt says he was overcome by the logic of the publisher's remark, so he went back and rewrote some parts of VotW to tie it into the same fictional universe as the one Hardwired occurred in. As I understand it, one of the inspirations behind Solip: System was to show the catastrophic events that caused the Orbitals in Hardwired to mutate into the Policorps that play such a prominent role in VotW. - 'Card (talk) 15:27, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2008-02-22T15:27:00.000Z","author":"'Card","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-'Card-2008-02-22T15:27:00.000Z-Series_Correction","replies":[]}}-->
