how... how is that obvious? they are the race with the cleanest armor, most functional weapons, largest amount of ships seen on screen at a time, and have the most organized hierarchy.

big does not equal dumb, even the name "cabal" seems to indicate a no-nonsense attitude towards their work and well defined goals (at least too me)

I have no doubt, that of all the enemy species revealed thus far, aside from the Vex... that the Cabal are the most technologically advanced, perhaps not the most intelligent (I tend to think that most sapient species are on the same level) but at least the only one that doesnt appear to have suffered some form of cultural cataclysm.
