Attempting to get back on topic, I don't really see any reason to think Carparelli was made.

I just don't see the logical inference. Clearly he is heavily involved, but so were people like Ronnie Jarrett and Frank Schweihs, and we know they weren't made.

Over on ANP there was years of ferocious debate as to whether someone even as high up as Marco was made.

Does that make sense to me, that Marco wouldn't be made?

Not really.

But Fosco who despite his shortcomings does have some good information insisted for years he wasn't.

It would seem hard to look at any kind of external criteria to determine if someone is made or not.
