I don't have a State of Confusion so I'm not SURE you could do this, but if
I'm correct...

the DLOH's are right that it HAS to be 'the runner whom CS is redirected to
must cost less or nothing happens.' Otherwise, I target my own Static,
play SoC, pay the 1¥ and then frag your Skwaaaaaark. How annoying would
THAT be?
