No, they’re not, and if I gave the impression that I thought they were, that was my lack of clarity. Rather, I was under the impression that the Sarum announcement included what amounts to ‘get back to doing what you’re supposed to be doing’. I’ve since dug it back up, and reviewed it, and found my memory to be incorrect. So on that score, muh bad, conflict resolved.
Indeed. That is very much a concern I’m aware of, and share. I don’t disagree that it was foolish and disreputable for the AmarrMil pilots to have entered into the agreement. I was simply wondering why a culture that places such emphasis on keeping one’s word would push to violated it, even in extremis. However, as I’ve indicated, that was a misunderstanding based on not remembering things correctly.
