Wazat I got curious and read the post. In my mind the FAQ directly contradicts the rules. This is something no-one put forth in that discussion. And that kineticoperator is acting quite contemptuous.

The rules entry states: Many card abilities use the word “you” to specifically reference that Ship card. Abilities on Ship cards cannot affect other ships unless explicitly specified by the ability. Example: Night Beast’s ability reads: “After executing a green maneuver, you may perform a free focus action.” This ability can only be used to give Night Beast a free focus action (and only after his ship executes a green maneuver). Likewise, Damage cards and Upgrade cards only affect the ship to which they are assigned, unless otherwise specified.

The Jonus' FAQ entry screws all this over: " If another friendly ship performs multiple attacks with a secondary weapon (such as  Cluster Missiles ), Captain Jonus may use his  ability  for each attack. ( X-Wing FAQ, Version 3.1.1, Updated 07/24/2015)"

This is a direct contradiction and is also the only entry that seems to support the cause put forward but kineticoperator, while every other entry and ability still adheres to the rules entry above. Which I why I'd still go with ruling that Etahn's ability can't be used with Snap Shot.
