  >What if foreign power's soldiers board your ship? Acting like nothing's happening to not look "scared"? Where does this comparison even come from? If these soldiers were not invited onboard, then it is clearly an act of aggression and some might say casus belli. Flying drones over another sovereign's naval vessel in international water is nothing like boarding that same vessel with sailors. To even attempt to rationalize that as the same is just some sort of Simone Biles level of mental gymnastics I am incapable of comprehending.
