I have previously noted that the instructions with
some /Help/ terminals (with CCTV) appear to envisage their being used
to keep gates "supervised" so that a station need not be have a member

I doubt that very much. The gate supervisor is there to make sure
people can get out of the station if the gates break. It's easy to
imagine situations which would break both the gates *and* the help
terminal. Vandalism, for example.
