Go ahead and require a special gadget to get an "electronically transferrable ticket," no skin off my back. That is a feature I will never use. Don't bother your season ticket holders about getting their own person admitted!

Forgery is a non-issue -- this guy is a season ticket holder. Literally all they need is his government ID checked against a list. The "problem" they were trying to "solve" is letting people sell some of their ticket

You don't have to actually do #3. What most companies do is just get a UL certification (to reassure consumers) and put the label "no user-serviceable parts inside" on the case (to meet UL mandates for safety) That's

I think aix still ships CDE, too which would be unremarkable except none of the UNIX vendors has produced a new build in like 30 years so if they are still shipping CDE it is probably 32 bit binaries from AIX 4 or AIX 5L
