I mean honestly, if you’re going to negotiate with such a tough crowd as the yaks, the last thing you want is to be exhausted and stressed upon arrival. There’s a reason political VIPs are pampered - besides having the money to be - the last thing they want is to be making an important decision when their muscles are aching or their mind’s blank.
 
If anything, those stallions carrying BB are important participants in the negotiations because they’re keeping BB’s mind at ease. SA should be lettin’ ’em do their jobs :P

Ever since he showed up.

@Starswirl  
Yup, but with the actual royal pedigree to back up the attitude even more.

Anypony else getting Rarity-vibes from him here?

One’s ability to properly carryout their task or duty tends to come into question when said individual expresses traits that reflect poorly on said potential ability.
 
It’s like a nun walking around in a mini-skirt and “do me” pumps; sure she could know the word of the lord better than her fellows sisters of the cloths, but when it comes to first impressions like this comic strip it sure doesn’t help.

Right SA, it’s not like he probably has any experience in this or anything. I mean, he’s been a prince since birth and you’ve been one for like, what? Ten months?

Sure, why arrive in style and comfort, eh?
