Comment (by karsten):

 Reducing the delay from 2 to 1 days or even more is possible and wouldn't
 cause much work. The main reason against doing it is the risk of false
 negatives. The main reason why such false negatives would occur is when
 the database has not been updated for a few hours. Another possible source
 for confusion are time zones.

 I could imagine taking out this limitation, but only if we display a very
 clear warning that the date may be too recent to provide more than a
 preliminary result.

 If this makes sense, I'd like to talk this over with Julius in two weeks,
 who has provided very valuable input on ExoneraTor's web interface in the
 past from his experience as lawyer.
