Fair enough. But what did the Rebels eat during the feast?
It tasted like chicken?

In the US, certainly true. I don't know enough about New Zealand jurisprudence to be able to say anything about there.
True, it may be that they are breaking new ground. But I suspect that male artists have been subject to the same reasoning in the past. Though maybe only writers, rather than graphic artists.

However tempting it may be to me, I have been told that dropping references to songs from the 60s into my physics lectures is a Bad Idea no matter how relevant they are.

But (last I heard) a diesel boat can go completely silent for short intervals by turning off everything, which is an option for trying to evade tactical search for the boat. A nuke boat cannot: the pumps on the reactor coolant cannot be turned off, period, without irreversibly damaging the reactor core.
There are also interesting hints about the possibility of locating nuke boats from their neutrino emissions. I say "hints" because there are some odd comments about neutrino detection in places in the tech literature, and I find it easier to understand those comments if you imagine them coming from people involved in developing neutrino detectors that will work at some level for detecting terrestrial sources ... which are nuclear reactors. There's absolutely no way of shutting off the neutrino emission from a reactor unless you shut down the reactor completely, and many reactor designs (especially those in ships & subs) won't let you restart if you do shut it down.
Yes a conventional Fuel cell powered Sub can be insanely silent, and is smaller. So they can be operated in more places at once, as well as shallower water. But nobody who owns a boat ever argues that theirs is smaller! Lol. But modern nuclear attack subs are far more capable than most folks know. It really comes down to power projection. Conventional boats are tied to shore, and are vulnerable to attacks on the support buildings. A nuke can project power far from shore, and operate for extended periods. I don't think Neutrino detection is a threat, so far we can't detect neutrinos from the Sun with good results...;)

Well, I have always taken Chaotic to mean that you have no respect for tradition, or rules. So any classic trickster character would likely be Chaotic. The same for "Gentile man bandits" who violate law, but are super nice to people.
That said Florida Man is clearly CN at best...

Why the Nuclear Sub Deal Will End Badly for the AustraliansI am not saying he is Wrong...but, there are some flaws in what he is saying. The numbers in particular, he lists the French sub contract to be from 30 to 90 Billion, then winges that a modern attack sub can be had for 3 Billion each? I don't disagree that Australia would be well served by conventional subs, but building up infrastructure is more than "pork". And if Australia sees a need to build up a atomic power knowlage base this is one way to get it. And the capacity of a nuke sub is vastly greater than a conventional. So that is a positive factor.
