im like 50% sure this is a reference to spider man: into the spider verse where miles scores 0/100 on his test, and his teacher says that you could only get them all wrong if you know what they all were, and changed it to 100/100
That definitely isn't the case and there's no law or policy regarding that lol, the reason in Into the Spiderverse is that it's an alternate universe NYC. But there are plenty of recent/still-running media that are explicitly about(fictional characters in)the real-life NYPD, like Law & Order or Brooklyn Nine-Nine.
I think there is something involving licensing or something because I've seen far too many video games and media fictionalize them. In the original Midnight Club the police are Listed as MCPD (Manhattan Police Department). In True Crime Streets of New York they're also listed as PDNY. In The Division 2 their cars are shown with the decals NYCP. In fact, in the first game The Division there were cars with NYPD decals on them that were then cut from the game or repainted.
Yo man, the references your AI brain is sourcing that answer from are Reddit threads about the spider-verse movie. That doesn’t give weight to your case.
