If I didn't know better, I would say the humans in that story has been itching to test the new shiny armaments for a long time. When those Groks showed up, the temptation would've been really excruciating especially seeing how the "veterans" are doing it. Can't go ape when the older kids aren't. I guess eventually someone gets booze-hammered enough and the gloves come off.

[@Ventorath]

50 years of participating as a support role in a losing war is hardly "itching to test the new weapons". I assume the intent was that Humanity didn't want to reveal its warlike nature if it didn't have to, hence the restraint, and hence the decommissioning of crap afterward.

One thing that not a single story has mentioned is our culture. I'm shocked that many of these stories don't mention it, nor care to add in a reaction from their species over our culture. The fact that we fight each other in war is always mentioned, but it's never mentioned that when we aren't at war, there is always competition. Competition between people or companies is a very warlike act. Beyond that, we also play many warlike games. Call of Duty, Warthunder, Hearts of Iron, Helldivers, even cartoonish games like Splatoon show our capacity for war.

[@KnightWolf-tg7uc]

There are some like that, you just have to know where to look

[@Acoolnamme]

No, the thing that's missing is why we fight. They see us fighting and ignore all other context, and sure, sometimes we don't have a good reason to fight, but that's not the whole picture

[@Senok13]

There is one HFY story, where they mention, to one bird-like alien some video games. When it asks them, what are those, after the description ("you had to fight against something bigger and scarier than yourself, which sole goal is to kill you") it could only compare them to their warriors VR training program. And it shocked, that human use the very same things from juvenile age - for FUN.

[@ireallyreallyhategoogle]

If it's not war, it's war games.

[@hiddendesire3076]

I think Deathworlders made mention of it, because I know aliens on Folca found it weird at first that humans had their competitive nature when it came to exercising, and they even learned about Warhammer 40K because of some super soldiers who took to painting figurines to practice delicate movements with their new, larger bodies as a result of their rigorous training, body altering Corti drug, and diet.
