This is actually how the Core works, 99 percent of the time: lawyers and regulators fighting over standards, one country exporting its rules to another by denying access to its markets for that country's "tainted" goods, and so on.

Ah, but we live in such dangerous times ... war is the only answer.

Quick, somebody get the stern-faced security expert on camera to explain that it's really all about security!
