Even if we put aside collisions, new system features ‘Synthetic Match Vouchers’, which is seemingly adding noise into actual CP counter.

I yet to understand what happens to people who only have those synthetic positives? Regardless of what counter threshold is, can’t those people be hoovered up by a subpoena of counter >0 ?

Oh yikes, I didn't realize they were handing out fake CP points to preserve privacy.

That's really really really user-hostile design.
