Saying "nothing's happened yet" and "it's dumb" is not making this any better, neither the threat, nor the question of trust, which I think we were discussing here.

I don't know what your point actually is, but it's not going in the direction of: just normal business between two states, there's nothing to worry about. Not at all.
