and there are ethical boundaries for tasking... SNIDE or no SNIDE
Wait... Are you trying to inject ethics in SF0?
SNIDE revels in playing with exactly where those boundaries lie. We're talking about the group that's had public pole dancing, the use of social engineering to block entrances, and provoking the Mayor of Claycord by dressing fire hydrants in people clothes. It has whole tasks dedicated to vandalism. I'm all for keeping it on this side of the line of decency, if just barely so, but the line doesn't always lie where you expect. Your boundary, while well-intentioned, seems a bit too restrictive - and needlessly-restrictive boundaries of taste, well-intentioned as they may be, are the antithesis of SNIDE.
In my younger days at Chinese camp I knew a high-school student (legally a child, though of course not entirely so in any real sense) who derived a great deal of pleasure out of wearing a very cool-looking spiky plastic ring and watching his peers snicker whenever any grownups asked where he got it. We never let on what we all knew - that he'd bought it from a vending machine in a sketchy public men's room.
Harmless fun, and it made for two weeks of chuckles between when he bought it and the end of the session. Probably the best fifty cents he ever spent - but it was undeniably an inappropriate object.
and SSI could edit the last bit out if it ever gets approved.
And hopefully no 4 year-olds will go home with spermicide.

Discouraged?
But... this is SNIDE.
