Ok, I see the distinction you’re pointing out. In concept, scenario A seems less harmful than B. However: we disallow A anyhow because it opens the door to gross abuse, namely “I only re-enacted it and didn’t admit to doing so because I forgot xyz” would become the standard excuse for all kinds of things that in fact WERE frameups. So despite seeing the distinction you mention, I still remain as opposed to both kinds of tampering, for basically the same reason: that I don’t want innocent people to be punished.
