I asked T2, what do you do with journal snips I leave with you? Toss? Read and toss? File? Read and file? She said, I do read them.
so I said, OK, well I will leave you these, but I will tell you ahead of time that whatever we talk about today, there's something in there we will not be talking about.

she was fine with it.

I think there is no "cheating", however you can get it out, is fine.
