No matter how easy to forge, *requiring* them raises the risk/reward
bar. Penalties for forging Q Random Company ID are less than those
related to forging "government issue" IDs. Of course, it moves the
bad guys' gamble to 'will there be a rent-a-cop that doesn't check
the ID book or have they installed actual lookup facilities'?
