IMO any comparison to military language or norms is just wrong when it comes to Paul's approach to the OLC. He knows any OLC members can go off and do whatever they want to; and the role he takes on is mostly mentoring. He finds ways to link their desires to his (Paul's) broader goals. It's not command and control, it's individually tailored personal/skill/spiritual development programs.Like I said in my other post, I'd argue that going out of your way to help commit genocide against a third party that your corps has no official stance against without even informing the corps of such a plan, and in fact going out of your way to hide it from them until it was too late, is at best insubordination and at worst counts as going AWOL
It isn't a perfect comparison but imagine if two marines overseas decided to work alongside a local militia to exterminate a group that the US has no official relations with and went out of their way to hide that from a visiting general because they thought he might stop them
