"The era made us enemies, not by our will, and now, it is once again making us allies." ("...not by our will as well", can be added if you want to add some tsundere-ness)

May not persuade everyone, but it always works. They were forced to be enemies, but they didn't really want to. Something like that. I can accept that but that's not really the thing that discomforts me. If I were to put in a way that is kiiiinda relatable:

IJN scuttling/Accidents:

A situation where your pet cat is dying painfully and slowly. The vet is miles away and you know it in your gut that it's too far, so you end it's misery yourself.

Accidents are incidents where you suddenly bump your friend and he got hit by a car.

These 2 have one in common; you yourself are hurt by it (emotionally). Contrary to IJN and USN's case it's more towards defending your home from a robber, but getting yourself killed.

To be honest, whether or not I accept the USN ship will depend on the girls. If they welcome her, than alright. If no, I probably won't get her.

I'm a bit sentimental haha.
