Fair, I forgot they had a timeout left.

Even though I quoted this post before, I somehow missed this part. I think you have to enable everything in that review to be actionable. How stupid would it be to show you not only have evidence that something was done illegally, you are looking right at it...but you can't do anything about it because you weren't specifically looking for THAT error?

True. That has to be an extremely low occurrence.
