Probably I am going to ask some silly questions but...

• Does the question mark before a precondition, work the same way as the logical operator 'not' in other programming languages?
  
  
• Why 'Plane:HasCannons() and Plane:CanFireCannons()'? Wouldn't 'Plane:HasBombs() and Plane:CanFireBombs()' be more logical preconditions for the 'BombCourseStrafe(Plane)' and 'BombCourseSlow(Plane)' strategies?
  
  
• Do the 'Ship:SetThrottleRatio(1.0)' commands apply to the attacking aircraft or to the attacked sea unit? In the latter case, shouldn't them be part of ship, rather than aircraft, AI strategies?
