I would tend to agree. As I just stated in the post regarding the
"4th set of questions" (or something like that) I would recommend that
sleazing be considered automatic. What I mean by this is when a
challenge card is exposed it only matters what skill set the runners
have and what the sleaze requirements are at that moment. If a runner
is sent back for whatever reason the challenge is still considered
sleazed if the skill set fit originally.

This of course also means that Red Widow and the Rapier can't be used
to bring runners in to help on the sleaze. They can be brought in to
help with combat, but if they aren't there when the challenge is
exposed, their skills aren't there either :-)
