Plotholes for What if: The Hearing

In relation to: What if: The Hearing

I'm not sure if you care about such things for this story, but I was reading it again, so here goes.

Item #1
and was made acting captain for three days

Soronel's comment:
I am really not sure what period three days is supposed to refer to (I am not even sure that acting Captain is actually the rank meant here.

If Augustus knows about at least one of Eric]s stints as Acting Captain, I would expect it to be the period on-board the Devastator, which lasted longer than three days (in which case it should not come as a surprise to him later). On the other hand it might have actually intended to reference the period Eric was an acting Ensign not Captain, at least the part before they got tangled up with the Seneca. That latter would also make sense in terms of Eric's disappearing after that period.
