Lol
True. Because then Snake would have had to do full straddle splits at least once in every MG game ever made.
Fun fact: Old Snake is loosely based upon actor Lee Van Cleef.
Old actor, so for those who aren't familiar with the name, he had two co-starring roles in Sergio Aragones' spaghetti Westerns with Clint Eastwood. And he played a ninja master in a TV show creatively titled "The Master."
And of course, Lee Van Cleef was also in Escape from New York as Hauk, the police commissioner who "recruits" Snake.
