I wonder if it's using the background tile map for this instead of sprites, though that's also an impressive amount of graphics bandwidth.

The audio being so clear is also impressive, is that something that the card extends? IIRC the PCM channel on the NES isn't anywhere near that bitrate, and is also 8-bit sample size.
Yes, it's all background tiles being loaded continuously from the SD card. We created the tiles with a custom tile de-maker.

I can see some concern over this, but just not in this case. If it was, "all people that searched pyromancy" and that included people that were looking up fireworks, for example. Or if it was all people that looked at any house on redfin in that state.
This was a fairly targeted search, all told. "Anyone been asking around about the victim?"
So: once it's not "hard" any more, does IP even make sense at all? Why grant monopoly rights to something that required little to no investment in the first place? Even with vestigial IP law - let's say, patents: it just becomes and input parameter that the AI needs to work around the patents like any other constraints.
