I didn’t say it was “unwantable”.

I said it is impossible.

Because it is.

Ask anyone you know who is vaguely acquainted with federal technology projects and contracts.

Even if they did it (which they won’t) it would take 10 years of incredible waste and damaging political flak to reach the conclusion that it was wasted money and effort.

It won’t happen.

I agree, it is probably too difficult to impose, but that doesn't mean that the government will not try. I remember the pollution control checks from the past, where you had to get your car tested prior to renewing its plates. All old polluters were given an exemption and newer (less polluting) cars were required to pay $25.00 to undergo the test. The program was unworkable, but it was still imposed.

I can see this administration attempting to install a system for newly purchased autos only - giving an exemption to existing autos.
