I was actually speaking in jest so feel free to remove that data, but my point stands - I can see the fails, so they definitely can.

I know you were.

Removed the oldies anyway.

Your original MOT is still valid if the fault is not listed as dangerous as previously stated:

Just use common sense and don't rely on the handbrake to stop the car rolling away in the interim.

I wonder if you get flagged on the ANPR system - the same way you would get flagged up for having no MOT? .

I wouldn’t worry too much then, I know someone who forgot their MOT had run out 6 months before and they never got pulled over or anything during that time.
