That was more along the lines of "snarky comment thrown in by Bilmore to show why he isn't all that sympathetic to the claimants".
I still wonder how you prove BARD that someone knows the US is affirmatively trying to hide someone's agent status. That sounds harder than trying to prove that someone knew the speed limit was thirty - that's why there's a presumption for most offences. Not for this one, though.
