My fan theory about the Voight-Kampf test is that it is a deliberate placebo of Kafkaesque tediosity.
Functional humans have an affective adaptation to absurd bureaucracy, namely dorsal vagal dis-engagement.
But something like a machine -- especially a machine that fears its own unconcealment -- is constantly making predictions about the next steps. It fears the efficacy of the VK test, but it has no way to estimate its own achievement relative to absurd questioning. This anxiety is its tell.

Write something nice about Sonya in this birthday card. I can't remember which department she works in or which one she is, but it's important that we all say something.
The only way to fail the VK test is to be driven to anxious upset by it.
The only way to pass the VK test is to disengage from it, affectively.
