The Cyberpunk is all aesthetic. This sounds ridiculous but it will be justified in the plot. The big level 98/99 twist are something altogether different.
Ehh, I mean considering real world Earth went from horses drawn wagons to Drone-based Amazon deliveries in less than 200 years, it's not THAT unrealistic to speculate a rapid rise of tech prowess. And since we already had a high-tech society in the Allagans however many years ago, any exposure S9 had to it would only accelerate their progress.

I'm more curious if it's connected to anything else in old lore (like the Green "Ark" near Rhalgar's Reach is connected to Sharlayan). Like, I wonder if S9 is the survivors of Mhachi. And the streets are crawling with undead (but very polite) citizens!?
