No disagreement there. In my OP, there was no mention of a crime. My question is very simple and narrow.
Once the immigration officer stamps me in, have I been admitted. I know that my luggage has not been cleared and is still subject to search.
If my passport is not stamped, there is a possibility, for argument's sake, that I and my documents might not have been inspected by the immigration officer.
