Well, as Ada's dad, I haven't, but I'd like to here. Don't change
anything, don't worry about changing anything, please don't generate
policies for hypotheticals or classes of people who have wide
variation in opinions and behavior.

Also, I think our policy for random teachers appearing with a class of
kids is to, in the future, publically note that this seems to happen
more than once, and change the variable we use to store it from a
single bit to two.
