I don't know that you really mean visibly doubling, I certainly believe it's
darker...

But my real point is, the driver COULD if it wanted to, overprint anywhere
it wanted to as a course of routine business.  I don't know why Cone doesn't
do that just to increase the black density...  It should be pretty
deterministic, I would believe?
