I can't help but wonder if we knew more about what's going on if we
could figure out a better way to accomplish the real, underlying goal
here.

If someone tells you that coins are hard to pick up off the sidewalk and
they'd like to design something like a suction cup on a stick, we can
help. But it might be better to sew up the hole in your pocket instead.
But not knowing about the pocket, we can't help with the real problem
;-)
