The idea that hanging chad happens - and can fool a machine scanner - is still a valid and sensible argument for a Miami-Dade manual recount, whatever the legal questions involved (that'll come later), and there was no evidence Sauls didn't see it.

Unfortunately the scanner destroys the tissue it scans, so you have to choose between your old brain and a new one. The new brain will react and behave exactly like you--but would it be you? If you say yes, are you confident enough to step into the scanner...
