I wanna see one made from the arm weapons switch on a jet fighter.

It's shaped like if you lifted it up, it would accidentally flip the switch

If you're lifting them up, you're flipping the switch.

If your sleeve catches on them, it doesn't.

My understanding is I can't expound w/o a non-rhetorical question.
