He doesn't want to kill Travis because he knows, no matter what, *someone* is going to be after him, and he wants it to be Travis because he knows how Travis thinks, which gives him an advantage when it comes to *out*thinking him. Kill Travis, somebody new takes his place, and Blake loses that advantage. Ultimately, this *may* have been a mistake on Blake's part, but it's far from irrational.
Is too! Is too! The next guy probably won't have as much personal interest, and may be from the first team or the Junior Varsity. Besides, Travis is a willing participant in Federation tyranny, not just some poor bastard of a draftee (a faceless group that Blake seems to have *no* problem about killing).
