Agreed that detection is often used for discrimination, I appreciate the added nuance.
Though I would guess that we spend more effort to detect in detail the few things we care about more than the many things we don’t. I think this is because they’re not one to one. We care for our bodies; we dislike all of the germs/diseases that could infect them. We care for our particular, not all those we don’t have. Care is local, and detective infrastructure expensive.
If true, building detection infrastructure for X is a good way to help X get cared for.
