Right, and I think captain is a reasonable title for his position. But whoever wrote the article calls him a "commander", which strikes me as slightly overblown, and which IMO subtly implies hypervigilance. It reminds me of how they use the term "gated community" to sneak a connotation of privileged white separatism into the story.

I was thinking they called it that because of the gates.
