Uh, I mean, of course I don't know any better than you, but I think parent wasn't entirely serious... obviously. Was he?

I have zero proof of this, but I've heard of the US Navy having jets fly out, dump fuel, and come back to refuel minutes later, just to fill out a budget. Lose it or lose it is not uncommon unfortunately

He was absolutely serious. It's complete nonsense, of course, but this is also reality.
