I think it's more for the up and coming bomber? Past ones keep theirs.

But it's an interesting theological conundrum nonetheless. What happens if another learned scholar comes out with an opposing view?

these are feelings we might even share
these are thoughts we hide from ourselves
these are secrets we cannot lay bare.
