Goddamn I love the writing in this game. Especially Sarrano and Rell.
Interesting thing to note is that the original 15 Men on a Dead Man's chest didn't have that line; it was a fictional sea shanty from Treasure Island of which the author only wrote two couplets. A poet later expanded it into a full poem called The Derelict, which is what we nowadays know as 15 Men on a Dead Man's Chest. Grey is quite the renaissance man for a drunk, foul-mouthed mercenary. Which was a touch I always liked.
And no, that's not bad writing. Grey is a pretty smart guy, the game just never explicitly points it out.

In which we move through a massive mining complex that couldn't possibly be made by the natives, see machines bearing Confederate markings, and learn about the Skillshot system controlled by our Instinct Leash! Just why would Final Echo soldiers be having their performance rated by such a system?
