Mikumo only takes excuses so many times, but it's a little early to drag people for not making an effort at this point. So she lets it slide this time without too much of a comment, since it's not really overt enough to do more than be mildly amusing in the first place.
"One was someone from the same year as you, whose Earth has already had alien contact, but hasn't properly gotten involved in space politics. And then there's mine, which is quite easy to tell apart from most others considering Earth was razed by Space War I in the early 2010s," she says, tone rather mild in saying that. For her, it's historical events, things that happened well before she was born and well before most of the people she knows were born as well - she knows Earth is some degree of habitable again now anyway, she's just never been there herself.
It probably goes a fair way to explaining why her Earth developed long-distance space travel so quickly, though.
