Thank you, Richard, for the clarification. The way it read, it seemed like you were indicating the same one. I appreciate you explaining.
If I were implementing such a system, I would design a metric based just on the number of records (including inquiries) in a person's credit history and the number of years they span and not care anything whatsoever about the content of those records.
The problem I have is that the system is being implemented by the TSA/DHS. They may determine that a credit check is necessary. But you will have to forgive me if I don't take their word that they are only looking at issues of "stability."
Their track record on veracity is pretty poor.
