Jordies was indicting Barilaro for rampant corruption and environmental destruction. Barilaro wanted to make it about his being offended:
JORDAN: Yes it was basically just a straw man, who cares? Dude, even if I am the boogeyman they are painting me as, does that really matter when [Barilaro] sold out the most iconic national park in this country for $10,000, completely destroying it? 27 native species that don’t need to go extinct, he’s allowing them to go extinct because he has $10,000.
That is true! Combat in Traveller is meant to be quick, deadly, and avoidable at all costs. It encourages strategy because a fair fight could just as easily end up a TPK.
In Traveller, your stats are your HP, so as you lose HP, your physical stats degrade until you are dead. HP doesn't increase, so bloat doesn't become an issue.
