It was all very well going on about pure logic and how the universe was ruled by logic and the harmony of numbers, but the plain fact of the matter was that the Disc was manifestly traversing space on the back of a giant turtle and the gods had a habit of going around to atheists' houses and smashing their windows.

The problem is nobody trusts career state officials either - Edit 1

Also as crony positions go, usually a better quality of crony for Ambassador and the position is more ceremonial thus less damaged by cronyism anyway. I choose to view it as an escape valve preventing cronyism infecting the more vital bits like the DoD.

I take it you're not happy with the whoremonger who was Ambassador to Belgium the last few years?
