While i agree with general acquire =/=pass after all, its not defined in the rules. And there is need for it. Since X-wing does not use keywords technically ship that is passed ACQUIRES a target lock token . Same as they specified that 4-lom passing a token does not remove it even if it is physically removed from a ship. Per current rules there are only hints that passing is not acquiring (like mentioned 4-lom).

Striker's "boost" is not good idea here since that is clearly written on a card: perform a maneuver not a boost.

But Genesis Red does not say anything about "acquiring a target lock token" his card ability references "acquiring a target lock" which is specifically described in the rules reference. Adding keywords like assign might be a good idea but is not currently necessary.

Passing a token is not acquiring it. Because Acquire is defined in the rules, you can't substitute stuff for fun. If passing was an Aquire you would have to measure range and you could change the target because there is no mention of a fixed target like xx-23.

There is no FAQ entry because there is no need for. Same thing as doing a "Boost" like movement is not a boost (Tie Striker Title) passing around is not defined as Aquire.

The majority of FAQ entries aren't there because they need to be there. They are there because they clarify interactions with how cards work with the rules and other cards.
