Ka as Kansas is just - well it is painful. I don't know if I can take it.
But it's not our world. It has a major metropolitan area in Kansas, and the shipping docks make perfect sense, because there has to be some major shipping thoroughfare to explain how Metropolis ended up in Kansas.
I dunno, I think things like this never bothered me (like snow at Waterloo, in HL), because I'm quite happy to buy that in alternate universes, part of the differences are small things like this (or larger, dealing with river courses and such). The abbreviations for a number of states are the first two letters, so it makes sense for it to be KA -- even if ours is KS.
Also, adore your contemplations on Jonathan, even if I can't easily handle him being called "Bo Duke." *g*
And hatred of Lionel is entirely reasonable! He's supposed to be hated!
