Corrrection: The Rajan believed it necessary that the Neighbors ONCE had 
space ships. Indeed, it does seem logical that the Vanished People did 
not use dream-travel to travel to Green the FIRST TIME--which is what 
the Rajan is talking about here. They would have had to encounter inhumi 
before they could use dream-travel.

But there is no evidence, that they use any other means in any 
contemporary sense. The Rajan has as much traffic with the Neighbors as 
anyone and yet he does not know of any spaceships still in existence. 
Otherwise, why go fight inhumi for a Whorl lander?  Also, if he knew of 
the Neighbors had spacecraft currently, there would be no doubt (as he 
implies there is) that the Neighbors used some physical means to go to 
Green initially.
