It's got healthy usage and it uses the snowclone correctly. I don't see the problem.
Rhymes with "Protracted."I really don't see the point. Its supposed to be about thing closed away to be used later.
That's not a parallel to the other two sealed ___ in a cans, that usually are not intended to be used at all. Deterrent Force is a real world term, and applied more to just guys tropers want to gush about being badass. Three, Piccolo and Jesus were on the examples page, proving people are once again just gushing about "so and so is badass".

Modified Ura-nage, Torture RackThis is a snowclone that works; you haven't offered any good reason to change it beyond "I don't like it." And Not all of the examples are Deterrent Forces; that name would be more confusing.
...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.That was a suggested name, I'd be open to other. I don't like it because I think its pointless, but if I get no support I'll drop this.
Modified Ura-nage, Torture RackI don't see the problem.
Fight smart, not fair.I'm always happy to kill gushing dead, but there seems to be nothing wrong with this page.
Yeah, I don't see anything wrong with this page, either. Try presenting some actual evidence of any significant misuse, and maybe I'll change my tune.
Experience has taught me to investigate anything that glows.Move to lock unless anyone objects.
Really? Dumb pun on two over linked trope pages that's also misleading?
Can we just rename the trope to Deterrent Force or something and clean up?
