One thing to keep in mind: there's not that many viewers in a sim
anyway.
We need an inter-viewer "data bus" for low volume data sharing
between viewers in range, that's mediated through the sim.
I think puppeteering info is small enough to count as "low volume".
For higher volume data transfer, let the viewers share P2P contact
information through this bus, subject to user request and approval.
