Does that mean it might be safer to be less fastidious so that no-one can uncover records that never existed?

The records exist in all these cases. I operate under the assumption that the IRS is better at noticing these discrepancies than I am and that the cost of reworking it with my accountant is less than the cost of getting audited by an agency that gets off on this.
