Should Ireland give up its neutral status and join NATO?

What would it gain or lose by joining or not joining?
@DDonde Being neutral allows them to be an honest broker. Plus would mean it is a little less likely they would get attacked during a major conflict.

I think that there is a push from America and European NATO members for Ireland to join because 70% of the fiber optic lines connecting the world pass through Ireland and Ireland has no way to defend them.

@Ozymandiaz I was curious about what NATO would want from Ireland as well, but that makes sense.
