Personally, I'd like to know how NORAD has systems that can't track hypersonic missiles, but somehow can keep track of Santa - who is travelling at multiples of that speed.

At what point does tracking Santa transition from NORAD to national authorities for integration of low level air defence?

To be fair his reindeer are on Girls Night Out and, as we know, groups like that are hard to control
Rudolph and rest of Santa’s reindeer are all female, says N.S. scientist
Andrew Hebda, a zoologist at the Nova Scotia Museum, says while both male and female reindeer have antlers, only the females have their antlers during the winter months.
“Being members of the deer family, the males grow their antlers a little bit earlier and just after mating season, which is just about finished now, they drop off. So over a winter you’ll never see a male with antlers,” Hebda said.

And where does Santa get off giving them orders ('on Dasher, on Dancer . . . ). Sounds like toxic masculinity to me and any talk of Christmas banned from our schools.
