This makes me cringe a bit, from a regulatory perspective.  "You're
going to poke holes in what you land on, *on purpose?*"  That's an Ec
of 1.0 for that point - you'll be absolutely required to prove you
won't land in a populated area, and you'll have to run physical
security in and around your LZ anyway.

But, as should have occurred to me days ago, you'll have to do that
with the crushable nose anyway.  How are you planning to handle
getting approval for your landing site?
