The chair would note that this problem applies to any privacy-preserving code.
Consider the ethnicity codes. There is an Ex code: "Decline to state." The Zionism codes have a Zx option we discussed but did not include. Every dimension where privacy might matter has a "decline" option.
If Bx reveals conversion status, does Ex reveal something about ethnicity? Does every decline code betray what it protects?
