No secrets means no cover stories to track. Integrity is mostly just less mental laundry.

Lying is not one event, it is maintenance. You have to remember who got which version, keep the timelines from touching, and stay alert in conversations that should be easy. Honesty is not mainly noble here, it is light. There is nothing to keep straight because there is only one account of what happened.

Notice how much energy a small cover story is taking from you right now. If one is running, ending it usually costs a bad ten minutes and buys back weeks of low background noise. Take the ten minutes.
