Interesting experiment aside, I'd've mentioned the incident to the
manager. He may have had good intentions, but misleading a customer is
bad business and bad business sense.

What, you think the manager didn't instruct the "Genius" to do this?

While that's possible, I think it's most likely the manager had no idea
the Genius was doing this. I also think that if the manager did direct
that behavior they should know that it's not fooling everyone.

pronouncable sequence of letters) regardless.
