I know that many people would like to believe that scientific tests are somehow infallible, and if one fails the first test, then that person MUST be guilty, guilty, guilty.... But as I have stated innumerable times on this list, it is EXTREMELY important to maintain proper procedures so that athletes caught by "false positives" or just simple ineptitude are not tainted by unfounded rumor. A "daylight policy" would undermine that basic requirement of a properly functioning justice system, whether run by the government or the USADA.

If there was a "daylight policy" it wouldn't matter.

We have a third name. I'll tell you, USADA are doing a great job avoiding leaks before the B samples are tested :)
