Justified that the fighters are licensed in-universe so their job classes can be identified.
 * As Long As It Sounds Foreign: One of the features in this web serial novel series. The only normal sounding name is Kenny Fanal in The Secret Programs and Clair Tyranof in Route of Land. Considering that all planets in this series set in alien planets, this might justified.
