I join Jim in expressing the need to see documentary proof of the license plate business.
Merely to speculate: The Vallee/LHO license plate gambit may have been played long after the fact in order to muddy the investigative waters. It's the cognitive dissonance game.
As for Vallee being "in some ways a better patsy": This one I don't buy. At least not until we can determine that Vallee tracked back to deeply buried intel ops the likes of which (the false defector games, the Albert Schweitzer College provocation, HTLINGUAL, etc.) LHO had been exposed to/involved in.
LHO was the perfect patsy in part because a full investigation of his role -- if any -- in the assassination would have uncovered multiple secret and illegal operations that even the highest-minded inside investigators would be persuaded to keep hidden.
Plus LHO was connected -- sometimes tenuously, sometimes not -- to any number of False Sponsors.
Again, we must compare the Chicago/Vallee veneer to the Dallas/LHO depths. The former either was or wasn't constructed as a razor-thin Dallas image with just enough depth to make a post-foiling Dallas stand-down acceptable. The frustrating fact of the matter is that we just aren't benefiting from nearly 50 years of Chicago study.
Hence the hypothetical nature of my interpretation of Chicago and its roles in the bigger picture.

If an individual, through either his own volition or events over which he had no control, found himself taking up residence in a country undefined by flags or physical borders, he could be assured of one immediate and abiding consequence: He was on his own, and solitude and loneliness would probably be his companions unto the grave.

You can't blame the innocent, they are always guiltless. All you can do is control them or eliminate them. Innocence is a kind of insanity.
