Good ideas!

The reason it's secret is really dumb and it provides very little benefit, especially when brobots can spam gunshot noises. I think some things would honestly just be best if argued on a case-by-case basis. Furthermore, considering I know at least part of how it's made and it's kind of a pain in the ass, people shouldn't get in trouble for revealing it when it's so totally unlikely to cause any actual issues.

i think it’s justified sharing it’s recipe would either be pointless because you can’t  make the precursors or a huge spoiler for another chem

i think its almost same reasoning as with spiders. the chem isnt gimmicky or dangerous enough to be considered a secret chem, but one of the ingredients for it is secret.
