Suspect it’s mostly due to embarrassment at just how cringe people like Femi, Jolyon and Steve Bray are.

Following an already difficult week with the loss of a third of his strategic bombers, Lieutenant General Sergei Kobylaš, commander of the Russian Air Force, accidentally fell out of a window. Apparently, he couldn't fly as well as he thought.
