There is some distance between "intended" and "could conceivably". Good luck convincing the ICC that a nanoliter of ink is being used as a chemical weapon.
I mean chances of it happening are almost infinitesimal, but it is still something to consider. I was a munitions troop in the US military for 6 years and this was drilled into us. If there was anything on a bomb or missile it had to be sanded and repainted.
shrug That sounds more like your officers just didn't want you writing on munitions. But it is something to consider.
I always thought the same thing until I had to unload a plane one time because they found some corrosion on a bomb. A dumb bomb that was going on it's way to be dropped. Of course that was back in the Bush era when the US government was a little more picky about the war crimes they committed.
