Someone on a ship might have laughed at him or kicked him his first day when he asked about the restroom or the cafeteria. "You fool! This ship doesn't have a restroom! It's called the head! And there is no cafeteria! We eat in the galley!"  This in word / out word stuff builds comraderie, but it's not knowledge. Knowledge is knowing that if you're going to be out to sea for weeks, so there must be a place to go to the bathroom and a place to eat. Jargon is what do you call those places without getting laughed at.

Obviously the angled deck carrier with F-18s is going to get different missions than the smaller ship that carries F-35Bs. I said they're basically the same thing, and you're insisting that they're totally different things, but my point is that we have more than enough of each. We have 10 or 11 angled deck carriers. France, the UK, and Russia each have one. China has one or two.

Dude just stop!  Why do you insist on being the smartest person in every room you walk in?  Your narcissism rivals Trumps.  

Look, I drive a 4WD Tacoma with street tires.  I would never dream of taking it to a mud pit and go where guys with lift kits and mud tires go play.  The comparison of my truck and those trucks is ridiculous and that is what you are attempting to do here, so just stop.
