That is a good idea and possibly would make processing or handling traceable (by adding easily-traced material to the scene).

What a disappointment! My simple post of yesterday (a rewriting of the "Tears in the rain" monologue from Bladerunner) was deleted from HN, whereas this silly faux paranoid sci-fi blurb is left untouched. Sad!
