He may not have noticed until now.

This is Herb we are talking about....he notices EVERYTHING....
I suspect Alex is living in fear of Ninja Cats right now....

What's the issue with the word?

Herb is trying to crack down on pop-culture references and keep them from coming up
anymore, because he fears the modern litigiousness of American Copyright holders.
There is an old movie called "The Guns of Naveronne."
"Victory or Debt!"- The Battlecry of Mercenaries everywhere

"Greetings, Mechwarrior! You have been recruited by the Star League to defend the frontier against---Oops, wrong universe" - Unknown SLDF Recruiter

Reality and Battletech go hand in hand like a drug induced hallucination and engineering a fusion reactor ;-)

It seems he deliberately misspelled it. It's "The Guns of Navarone".

Even so the reference is obvious to those who are familiar with the movie.

Well it seems it's been relatively unnoticed till now
