If a pawn makes it to the 8th rank, does it promote? Is it a class traitor? Does it defect to the bourgeoisie?

It should promote and remain in control of the pawn player. Otherwise, the king can just hide behind the pawns. I like to think of it as the pawns stealing resources from the ruling class, as long as, you know, it does hoard the resources after the ruling class is taken down.
