With regard to at least the use of metal detectors, I wouldn't be so sure that a non-alarming leash/leash device in hand is necessarily any less capable of concealing some types of WEIs than a non-alarming diaper left on the monkey's diaper-covered area.
As far as what can be hidden in the thin leash, there is nothing that can be hidden in the non-alarming leash than can't be hidden beneath one's clothing that doesn't alarm.
With regard to the monkey, the monkey's diaper only needs to be inspected if
the monkey alarms the metal detector. If the monkey doesn't alarm, the monkey gets to keep its dignity (and the diaper will not be removed, nor the monkey inspected at all). There is no double standard between the monkey diaper and the leash. If it doesn't alarm, it isn't inspected.
