* CriticalResearchFailure: Possibly in-universe. Mac says he only stayed in Scouts for a few weeks because he didn't like the shorts. If he's between 30 and 35, they were already in the process of phasing the shorts out for the longer, zip-off convertible pants. If he's under 30, they were solidly in the long microfiber shorts that convert into pants.
** Alternatively, they might've been the 'shorts' that he didn't like.
