I agree. Plato said, "To be just is to do no harm." I would argue up until now, we had best effort at full information at a transaction level between the police/the incident/the public. The flaw was the only accredable information was asymmetric from the point of view of the police officer. Some times this situation led to fibbing to close a case or cover up a mistake.

Now there can be the solution to have symmetric, or full, information for the same situation. The only 'harm' now would be to those who forget the truth, embellish it, or are just bad at their job and lie.
