[ Not having to outright lie, but not giving anything close to the full story. It's the easiest way to handle this kind of thing.
Miles' explanation is clinical enough that Snake can guess at how many times he's had to tell this tale. It's a pretty gruesome one, but Snake doesn't flinch at it. He's lived a life of assassination attempts, even ended up head-to-head with his own brother. Tragedies like these go hand-in-hand with war. ]
