#1 "Whatcha think, Dr. Quincy?"
"I dunno, Sam, but there's salt water in the lungs."
"It's a dolphin, Quince, what did you expect?"

I would expect no salt water since dolphins like humans have no water in the lungs unless they drwon.

#2 Given the dolphins, how can it be put gently, perverse sexual proclivities, with just about anything, and even in groups, I suspect jealousy as the motive.

The oft-told tale of a whale biologist who comes home to his trailer, to find his wife in bed with a dolphin.

#3 The oft-told tale of a whale biologist who comes home to his trailer, to find his wife in bed with a dolphin

#5 dolphins have developed the one of only lasting a few seconds

But very high power, I understand. "It's concentrated!"
*shudder*

500 m is more than half a mile from the water, unless I confused numerator and denominator. That's quite a distance for intrapod jealousy.

#6 A meter is about a yard, so 500 meters is about 1500 feet. Let's call it 3/10s of a mile. But you are right - that is a long stroll on little vestigial legs.
