Wot? You offer them Neapolitan, and they demand Vanilla????

Wow, the power of the media to train us to respond in a pre-programmed
way

Admittedly, watching a space battle taking place in complete silence, or

with just the frantic clatter of keyboard commands being typed, would be

weird, thanks to Star Wars - actually, watching a space battle would be
a case of watching little lights, or probability cones, floating about in a
holo tank as the computers tried to work out probable positions of ships

based on information seconds old. None of this looking out the view port of
your Mon Calamari cruiser, pointing, and saying "Here they come". The latter
does make better television, so for the story's sake, we tone down the science
and wind up the handwavium generator. YMMV.
