Thinking about how best to avoid exfiltration... one option is simply to create a bottle with no secrets in it, at all. Then there's no data to exfiltrate. This is probably the ideal solution for the research phase when implementing a PRD (specifically PUBLIC research). This would be something I would ideally want to do BEFORE the private research phase, as the private research phase could theoretically put secrets in a PRD. Reviewing the documents created during a private research phase would be a good way to mitigate this.
