A battle between two opposing belligerents in the American Revolution, that wouldn't have happened without the American Revolution, had nothing to do with the American Revolution? Being you must be fascinating.

But that’s the point, it COULD have happened without the American revolution.

It was just one main side in the war attacking an ally of the other main side somewhere else in the world entirely. Could have been during another war entirely. Nothing about the attack was really relevant to the American Revolution other than members of the two sides were involved.
