yeah in analog chess you could just check if the other pawns near it collide in trajectories when doing the double move and if they do then en passant is in effect.

I wonder what the conversion rate on this is. How many people forget and move on with their lives? How many are that focused on the bag?

Interesting. Did something similar with a self hosted version of geoguesser with my friends. We set it up right near our school. We have multiple routes walking home and the amount of precision we could get was insane. One of my friends was able to get only a few meters off from the original position almost instantly.
I hosted it here if anyone wants to try https://geoguess.alexmehta.xyz/createmap (advanced map and draw your boundaries).
I found it more fun than Back of Your hand just because I frankly don't remember too many streets but can recognize the overall area from walks I go on.

Seems like just a coincidence. Though with how Russia likes to control the media I am surprised that they didn't change the colors to stop exactly what is happening now.

Was forced to read All Quiet on the Western Front a while back in my high school english class.
All Quiet really shows the suffering of war.
