*** Alternatively, Captain Feathersword's simply a pirate in title only. He could be someone else other than a pirate, but he likes the aesthetic of being a pirate so everyone calls him a pirate out of respect because he's their friend or something like that.

***Alternatively, the extent of Captain Feathersword's piracy ends at watching licensed cartoons on shady websites. [[spoiler:Or maybe he runs a pirate radio station, we don't know what he does with his offscreen life.]]

* FridgeLogic: Pirates aren't nice people, they're thieves. Captain Feathersword the Friendly Pirate is a ''pirate''. It's equal to having a character today called "Colonel Ticklebomb the Friendly Terrorist".
** Captain Feathersword, as implied by his moniker, has a feather for a sword. He ''has'' to be friendly...as would a terrorist whose bombs induced tickles instead of death.
*** Anthony and Murray address this (very vaguely) in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCbCd7VJUUw an interview on David Tench Tonight.]] Basically, they say [[ChildrenAreInnocent the nature of the show and its primary demographic]] would prevent anybody (even a pirate or a terrorist) from [[ButNotTooEvil doing anything really "bad" in-series.]] The interview also implies that Captain Feathersword would, at worst, be AffablyEvil (and, if placed in a modern-day "terrorism" plot, would most likely -- as suggested above -- "charm" everybody with his feathers and friendliness).
** Guess we've got our new culturally relevant children's show character!
** Privateer Feathersword isn't as catchy?
*** That's catchy as hell, though.
*** Unfortunately, the [[UsefulNotes/AussiesWithArtillery Royal Australian Navy]] had not issued any letters of marque since their foundation. Furthermore, privateering is prohibited under international law thanks to the Paris Declaration of 1856 at the end of the [[UsefulNotes/TheCrimeanWar Crimean War]].
