It probably has no bearing on the story, but some details in this chapter tell their own tale.
We know Pegasopolis was so low on food that they had started to resort to cannibalism. Here, we can infer that this was a decision from the leadership, which finally got them killed in an uprising.
The really telling thing is what didn't happen. The former officers were not eaten by their starving subordinates. Given that the remaining Pegasi had no way to be sure Luna was telling the truth, this suggests two things. First, that removing the officers solved the food problem, at least for the near future. Second, that removing the officers solved the food problem in a way that would not have worked if they'd sacrificed lower ranking soldiers instead.
Taken together, it paints a picture. I think the leadership of Pegasopolis were hoarding rations, even as their soldiers were starving to death. Somepony found out, which led to the uprising. Since there were fewer mouths to feed, and there was now a stockpile of rations, they threw the officers off the city rather than eat them.
Wait, arms? Is this anthro?

I do not think so... If it was I would've left long ago. It's probably just an expression for hooves, rolls of the tongue are easier than forehooves. Though simply hooves are acceptable to me in place of arms, hands, feet, legs, etc. unless it is absolutely required to be mentioned as a specific one, in that case, forehooves/hindlegs are also acceptable to me.
I usually don't bother finishing the description of stories that have the anthro tag in them... unless it's smut, but that's a completely different story.

To clarify; No. This story exhibits no anthromorphic Ponies. "Arms" is basically short for forearms/forelegs.
Damn... The most senior officer in the entire city is a Sergeant 😬 yikes.

You'd be surprised how much background I sneak in using this technique.
Although I admit this may be the most egregious.

If I recall correctly, I may have fudged the 'facts' of what's written down, Purposefully making it slightly incorrect. But I admit freely that I may be mistaken.
That said however, since this is a work of fiction, I do have a set of rules that I'm operating with in regards to quantum physics.
Yes, this is important enough to have it's own ruleset for, currently, three paragraphs worth of dialogue.

Interesting. However I believe you are missing critical context. In real life, it is very likely, that in the event that an alien race reveals themselves, we will have riots all over the Earth. The status quo will have been irrevocably shattered, and not everyone is going to like it. And considering the modern political climate, I would wager it is very likely that the 'crazies' are going to come out of the woodwork to protest what they can't change.
Why? Fuck if I know. Why do Karens and the like do anything?
