No need to get intense - we mean it literally, no need for it.  With the neutral, go-ahead-and-make-your-case observer, your material is very convincing Bat.  
Not everybody has been exposed to high-pressure leadership situations.  Those who aren't familiar with it will have "classroom" type reservations about it.  (No disrespect to those on the other side; in this case I think they're mistaken.  I could be wrong.)
8, or 9, out of 10 readers here have a good feel for what it means to keep a U.S. aircraft carrier running the way it's supposed to -- we all understand that it isn't just anybody who could accomplish that job.  When you explain what it takes to do so, your credibility is a given.
The 1 or 2 readers (out of 10) who are unduly skeptical, are merely serving as a play-back for a rich, edifying conversation.  No harm in having to deal with the opposing point of view, whether or not you feel it's reasonable.
