"For all the good they do, Feral's right that they cause a lot of damage while fighting their enemies."
"Being kicked out of the Enforcers allows them to deliver justice their own way, though they do cause some damage despite being more skilled and competent. Feral rightfully labels them as lawless vigilantes because of this, at least, and occasionally tries to arrest them."
Ulysses Feral is a hypocrite! He would probably be reckless himself if he has to, and knowing him, he'll spin it as justification.
"He claims he was going to thank them at the end of "Unlikely Alloys" for shutting down Greenbox's rogue machine, but changed his mind when they snapped at him."
T-Bone's not wrong for snapping (Razor didn't snap). Ulysses was saying to Greenbox, 'I suppose you're responsible for this mess.' The way he said it made it seem like he was referring to the Swat Kats, and with their history, can you really blame T-Bone for being snappy?
"At the end of "Metal Urgency", he is presented with the perfect opportunity to get rid of the SWAT Kats. All he has to do is let the Metallikats go, and they'll tell him the SWAT Kats' secret identities. He refuses, and shoots them both."
Let's see:
a) Find out who the Swat Kats are...and allow The Metallikats to run amok,
b) Find out who the Swat Kats are...and double cross The Metallikats that certainly would come back to bite him,
or
c) Shut down The Metallikats...and lose the opportunity to find out the Swat Kats are his former subordinates who he unfairly blamed for his ego problems.
When it's all said and done, I'm not surprised it was c.
"Given that this takes place in a future timeline that has likely been averted, it's probably no longer canon, but it's worth noting nonetheless given how rarely we ever see him happy and how he's always blasting the SWAT Kats for the amount of damage they cause in the Turbokat."
For once, I would probably take the unrealistic 'changing history' route due to the big f you that results in the Swat Kats' destiny to die in a couple of years with the realistic route in that flashback segment.
I also want to say, that a man online has the right idea with a Swat Kats/Karate Kat crossover, even if the latter is more like Hong Kong Phooey. He also has his opinions for ships too, involving the two series (both owned by Warner by the way).
T-Bone x Chow-Baby
Razor x Meow-Baby
Callie Briggs x Karate Kat
What's the reasoning for having T-Bone as The Hero and Razor as The Lancer? I don't really recall either being treated as the main character over the other.

Good news. It was removed, and yes, I agree. Neither one is a sidekick to the other, though Razor is traditionally smarter than T-Bone, but I still wouldn't call T-Bone a sidekick either.

I wanna add this particular trope under Al's bio on the character page. I dunno what it's called though. It has to do with his refusing to fly into dangerous situations despite Ann Gora and others pressing him to. It isn't cowardice per se, he's just really cautious and careful, and, dare I say, sensible. So what is this called?
"But people who see and talk to both identities on a semi-regular basis like Callie should really be able to put two and two together."
Wouldn't be surprised if Callie knows who the Swat Kats are. She just doesn't have the courage to admit it to Chance and Jake in private, yet.
Also, the Swat Kats are lucky that Commander Ulysses Feral is a complete moron.
