I'm glad you raised these points, because it dissuades other people from trying this flippantly.
But for what it's worth, I carefully considered each of those points from the outset. I hatched the plan and spent several months preparing for it daily.
I left a lot of details out (I didn't anticipate much interest...) such as the practice operation I did prior to this. I'm glad I ran a fake one, since it revealed a lot of mistakes I would've made which would've scrubbed the operation.
Before you start on a job like that you begin with laying the groundwork over the course of several years, any step along the way that can give away the game will endanger you and those around you. This is not something you cook up one find winter evening and put in motion without some extremely careful planning and creating multiple levels of cut-outs for any kind of activity that might point at your real identity.
Anyone who's considering doing anything like this should take these words to heart.
If anyone is going to fight these people and win, it has to be one of us. That means you have to try. It's doable, but you have to be absolutely meticulous.
P.S. Still mildly hopeful you have a list of questions 10x as long.
