semper infidelis, does that mean "always cheating"

To my knowledge, Squatter, designating people by number is a dumb "advancement" (as opposed to a dumb tradition), and our phone numbers, insurance numbers, student numbers etc. symbolise the in-progress fall of the world more then anything else to me. There is no need to put it in a more-or less midaeval fantasy world (especially only on the side of the bad guys) save to make a point.
