OUCH! BTW, that was a Pink Panther reference, not Pinkie and the Brain. (Gawd, how did those get produced?)

What can I say, I had a misspent youth, spent out of the country.

It would have to be, to be reflective on radar.
That's a pair of quarters, at today's rate of inflation. :(

At least you figured it out. It's taken some people 'months' to get one of my puns. :)
Steven Spielberg was how those got produced, especially Animaniacs. He was aiming squarely at the College and Young Adult / Parents crowd, and the stuff for kids was deliberate but secondary.
That's why the "Well, Goodnight Folks!!" line was thrown in by Wakko after the more risque entendres, as if it was an old-fashioned Live Show and they expected the plug to be pulled the minute the jokes hit air and the Executives saw them.

Air is fine, but it's not so good where you need positive control on the stroke of that push, so you don't have a Tool Crash when the follow-up operation tries to happen - unless it has enough brute force to clear a misshaped or mispositioned workpiece out of the way, and/or you put a limit switch to make sure it went far enough to do what you want.
And those truck brake units are handy things - and consider the Spring Brake ones. You have to apply pressure to release the parking brake springs, and then you apply air to the other half to get normal braking. But when it absolutely positively has to fail safe, the spring (and a dump valve of some sort) makes sure of it.
I notice you deliberately haven't said what this actuator is doing... Yeah, distributing 5,000 copies of the NDA and making sure they all got signed and returned would be a problem.
