   Humans are also susceptable to error... in fact, existing filters generally   
   fail because humans programme them based on false assumptions. If the filter   
   misses something, it is either because the detection tech is not good enough,   
   or it is because humans    
   have programmed it to ignore responses that sometimes ought not to be ignored.   
   Alternatively, they might be programmed to respond to situations that are   
   irrelevant... just as bad because it ties up resources on pink elephant hunts.   
      
   I like to say that stealth is less about not being seen than it is about not   
   being noticed. It is meant to deceive the humans that control the tech.
