Cardan grille

You can clamp tokens (instead of letters / words) in the grille, I guess?
(And you can't replace the grill positions with relative indexes like 'the ith, mth, and nth tokens' because the tokenizations will all change... Maybe a more complicated relative index like 'whitespace separated character-ranges'... Well, whatever you do, it'll be annoying when it's a BPE LLM instead of a character-level model.)
I was assuming you have a grille over the tokens.
In the age of dragnet surveillance and megaflops it seems incredibly weak, especially with smaller messages.
