A lot of facts I missed, and great post, DL....
Around here, there were actually a couple pay phones that had a rotary dial, well into the 1990s. However, in the late 60s to 1970 or so, our family had a push button phone. Those were push-button only on the outside though, with the same mechanism inside that a rotary phone had. One of my two phones in this apartment is like that. It's from the 1980s. You can't punch choices in a menu on them. Just thought I'd confuse you utterly, on time and phones.
What I'm thinking about the sword-cane is that they may have made it breakable in case it accidentally came into contact with Eis's face, but hoped it wouldn't come to that. Then it turned out they overdid it, and it fell apart accidentally a minute later.
