Salty, This is what I'm reading and hypothesizing. What have I got wrong?
Under Georgia state law, ballots can't be unsealed except via a court order. Most likely at some point a court will order they they be unsealed. When they are, I don't believe they'll provide evidence of election fraud. Btw, I do think the law is bull shit, as the Georgia State Election Board is not allowed to examine the ballots without a court order. Where's the oversight?
The absence of signatures on many of the tapes is the result of incompetence, in a blue county. Election workers forgot or didn't know to sign the tapes. If you don't sign your tax return, the IRS won't accept it. Is that reasonable for ballots too? Should you kick the votes out? I don't think so. Governments in a lot of blue cities aren't capable of dotting all the i's and crossing all the t's, so a lot of voters would be disenfranchised. And the voters didn't screw up. It was the election workers.
Election workers in the recount process sorted overseas ballots (including military ballots) into stacks by candidate. Thus one stack including 950 votes for Biden and none for Trump. Another included 130 votes for Trump and none for Biden.
We know the total number of machine ballots cast in Fulton County, and in the state of Georgia. There was an initial machine count, and a hand count, and a second machine count. And they all pretty much agreed.
Given the agreement in the counts, about the only way you could perpetrate fraud sufficient to change the results would be to have operatives cast a lot of votes. And those votes would have to tie back to registered voters who never showed up at the polls. How could you perpetrate a fraud of that magnitude without people finding out? And what would be the motivation? It would take a real idiot to risk years of imprisonment to try to help elect Joe Biden president.
If there indeed were massive voter fraud in Fulton County, then of course we'd want to see it uncovered. But what difference would it make? Trump still would have lost the election.
Btw, you're not correct about the legality of the recording. Under the laws of both Georgia and Washington, D.C., it's legal to record as long as one party on the call knows it's being recorded, according to Perplexity. Fuchs was on the call.

First off - it was a phone call with the President of
the United States - and needs to be treated as such.
To record it and then leak it may be a Criminal act,
which the courts can decide.
But secondly - the illegality is also the steps.
Fuchs WAS INDEED on the call - and her recording it
is the problem. ... Under the laws of Georgia and DC
which are one-party states, yes?
But Fuchs recorded the call in Maryland - not in GA or DC.
Maryland - a two-party state. ... Without the knowledge
of the second party. ... Which is Illegal.
... How did ALL those election workers just "fail to sign"
the tapes? ... It's their sworn duty. ... You think that's
surely co-incidence?? ...

... Yet the FACT is,
it's illegal to just have counted votes from UNSIGNED
tabulation records... Mentioned right there in Georgia's
own Election Law. ... So Raffensperger VIOLATED the Law.
... More on this can be found in the last pages of me previous

Got take a gecko at that for More Details!
Some 315,000 votes Illegally Certified.
Whether all those voters are disenfranchised has NOTHING
to do with Raffensperger's office VIOLATING the Law.
You really gonna use THAT as some-sort of excuse, Tiny??
... How Sad. ...
