A sense of pride at the scribe, compensating for the impossibility to
paticipate to the discussion.  Similar to the pride of the cap-wearing
person not drinking, in a night club, when everybody else does.  Because
s/he's driving.

Opportunity to show off being inventive, by turning it backwards so room
sees 'scribe' when situated in the front rows.

Maybe some scribes were disappointed that was not a gift, having to
return it at the end of the session.
