RQ3 (or was it 2?) said perception always beat stealth, I think (can't find the reference). However, I agree it's not always so clear-cut. I'd suggest deciding in favour of the
status quo in any given situation, i.e. whoever stands to lose something (their pocket contents, their job as guard, their liberty, their life...) should have the advantage.
