Funny, I have the exact opposite intuition as you. It being a totally-sandboxed phone app means I can trust it not to collect any data without my knowledge, without me having to spend hours looking through the source code for some trick

I've tried this over and over with different methods - putting the text in as an annotation, putting it directly in the document, putting many copies of it in the document... and in no case has it affected the results at all, using GP
