In paragraph 2, the texts says the knighting ceremony might not be so elaborate during wartime. HOW would a wartime knighting ceremony be different from other times, and WHY might it not be so elaborate? (MY GRADE DEPENDS ON THIS TEST)

The accolade is a ceremony to confer knighthood. ... The monarch then raises the sword just up over the apprentice's head, flips it counterclockwise so that the same side of the blade will come in contact with the knight's body, and places it on his left shoulder.
