I can understand why some people might opt to do what you're advising based on the conditions you've set out.
My father was hospitalized with COVID a few months ago and in my experience, when we push back, they bend.
Especially in the COVID area of the hospital they are very strict but I didn't let that deter me. The first day I came, I arrived deliberately at shift change when lots of staff were scanning badges and checking in for the day. When the gatekeeper wanted to turn me away because I refused to reveal my private medical information to her I calmly approached the entering doctors and nurses etc in the gatekeepers full view and asked how they felt about watching their colleague discriminate against me without any intervention on their part. I did not whine or cry. I just stood as tall as my frame would allow and asserted my right to be there.
I only made it through three employees before re-approaching the gatekeeper and informing her that I realize she is a young lady without a great deal of work experience but that when she receives instruction from an employer or any other "authority source" that is immoral or illegal or otherwise wrong, she has an obligation to disobey. She had my father's green smoothie delivered to him.
The next morning I arrived prepared to do battle and also prepared that the young lady at the gate could have changed her position. She waved me through to physically deliver my items to the nurses station myself breaking all protocols and continued to do so for the duration (13 days total) of my Dad's hospital stay. By the time there was a new worker, a precedent had already been set of letting me in so that person, after checking with the nurses downstairs, waived me through also.
Sometimes it does not take sneaking around, it just takes standing up.
