A tell of an author using writing software (AI-driven?) templates is how words or phrases routinely repeat due to programming. The patterns are there for a reader to see, and once seen cannot be unseen.
It’s not a ‘bug,’ rather an intentional business feature ‘feature’ of an increasing majority of scifi genre’s authors and publishers.

The downside was that everyone else was likely to be armed as well.
Author continues his Cultural Marxist ideology, espousing that being armed is only for the select few...'entitled.'

“Once upon a time, it would have made me sick to do that to another human being...but after nearly a decade as a cop, I wasn't quite so forgiving with my definition of humanity.”

“The world breaks everyone and afterward, many are stronger in the broken places. But those it cannot break, it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure that it will kill you, too, but there will be no special hurry."---Ernest Hemingway.”
