I agree, it’s insane that customs ever accepted a fictional port on uninhabited islands as a point of origin in the first place. That’s the loophole they should close. It does appear that that’s a thing that did actually happen though, so it’s not a complete fabrication. I’d say customs should have been authorized to confiscate any such good until a non-fictional provinence was proven.

Well, I’m doing my part against them by refusing to click on any bait headlines, but I fear it’s a lost cause anyway.

It may not rise to the level of proof, but it is a memorable and easily understood demonstration of something already proven by car safety researchers, as mentioned in the article.

Why shouldn’t they precut the wall into cartoony shapes? It adds entertainment and doesn’t compromise the demonstration.
