New Doesn't matter... wouldn't work
Fair Witnesses would not work in our society because an unemotional strictly factual account is not exciting to the masses and would not sell paper/air-time. And because the trade would not be valued, it would be fairly difficult to get an intelligent, educated person to train and dedicate their life to such a discipline.

Just cause I can spec it doesn't mean I can implement it...

Pity,
Hugh

New An important minority* would value them, but
(* a handful among the minority who now even vote, that is)

it's moot: only those on a course to genuine adulthood might apply for training.. Even then.. they would have to cultivate abnormal characteristics, present in only a small sampple of the species. Which current handful of genuine 'adults' - might train them?

See? - not ready yet.
