However, any secrets that do affect one's ability should remain secret, because most of the secret chems are secret because of how easily they can ruin someone's round. Not to say other chems can't do that, but secret chems tend to be more immediate and permanent. But stuff like Rotting or Feather Fluid should be secret because Rotting removes the ability to be cloned normally and then Feather Fluid makes you a bird which also complicates resuscitation.
i'm pretty sure silver fulminate isn't actually a secret chem in and of itself, but is just secret because one of its ingredients is one of those unlisted secret ingredients that go into actual secrets. ie, SF is secret to hide the secret ingredient, not to protect against it's own use.
Only listed secrets that I think could easily be classified as "totally harmless" are ageinium, bubsium maybe (never seen it but i have a hunch), lumen maybe (almost definitely secret for light update lag reasons) and reversium maybe (if people don't think the effect is too disruptive). Spiders and Silver Fulminate too, although they're secret for different reasons.
