You suspect some of the newer UFO sightings are a ‘vaporware’ weapon? You might be right. And yeah, it would give us more options.
This reminds me of the story of an orchestra who was disrespecting its conductor, who sneaked in and changed a note in the double bass's sheet music in a modern piece that had weird harmonies to begin with. As they reached that point in the work, the bass player played the altered note and the conductor stopped the orchestra immediately. After the heated argument that followed, the conductor was triumphant and from that point had everyone's respect.
