Subaru/Toyota can tell, and everyone has agreed on that. Dealers with techstream cannot.

They can't as far as we know, today. The point is just that for them to implement such a thing would be trivial, and if they suspect they're losing money paying out warranty claims they shouldn't be, they'll have every reason to do so. So, long term, your not really 'safe' unless the stock rom you flash back on is exactly, bit for bit, the stock rom that came on the car. With ecutek and possibly brzedit, this is never the case.
