Hopefully it won’t be much, but the fact it’s even a story is far from ideal. They should realise from previous actions they need to be squeaky clean.
The fact that they seemingly hadn't realised that shows that they are not astute enough to realise the implications or too arrogant to care about them. Either way, it's a really bad look given what's gone on previously and I can't see Stokes surviving it as captain to be honest.
