I suppose I could create them and mark them private with much the same effect. But I do create "Obituary" events/facts (with a transcription or an image attached) precisely because I do want to display those in reports. I do things this way because I feel my readers would be interested in seeing the obituary ... and would probably not be interested in looking at one or more censuses.
