It does not nullify my hypothesis.
We used to call hydraulic fluid red juice, or cherry juice in the service.
That is because it is red, very much in the way blood is red.
There is a very slight difference in color.
I don't know that you'd notice, if you were focussed on bringing off as
difficult an act as a public execution with the attention to detail that
Severian brings to everything he does.
