He has written this in a book imaginatively called "50 shades of grey".
"TELEMETRICS".

I have always had a premonition that disclosure was a true two sided sword.
One side, would be the awe and satisfaction that you knew we were not alone (but you might have 'known' that anyway.)
The other side would be assorted horror baggage of some of the things that went on to protect the secret, and certainly to use it.
It is totally possible, and perhaps probable, that if you were personally every privy to what could be disclosed, then you might elect that it not become public knowledge, yet.
The yet would certainly be determined by your persona, lifestyle and financial status. I believe this to be a realistic approach to the whole subject of disclosure.
I know, it's the old "Careful what you wish for" argument, but it has some legs.
