I really like the development that has gone into the e-ID. They even have thought out a safe way to update your PIN (https://www.pin-ruecksetzbrief-bestellen.de/)! The biggest drawback of all is the lack of any marketing, IMHO.
Moreover, the claim you cite references a now defunct website operated by P&G from 2005, archived version (it automatically downloads a perl script on my PC...): https://web.archive.org/web/20060515060609/http://www.scienc...
It seems that the P&G article promotes Febreze as a fabric refresher. It does not tell anything about the air fresheners from the same brand which are the topic of this thread.
On the other hand „huh?“ is meant in the paper rather for signaling that I didn’t understood the form, AFAIU. For that I would rather use „Was?“ or „Hm?“ in a slightly higher voice, like the German instance at point 25. in Figure 1 suggest.
As a sidenote, I wonder if the examples in the paper are acceptable in semi-formal conversations, say when talking to colleagues at work. In German I would rather stick with „Wie bitte?“ to avoid judgements like in the answers under https://german.stackexchange.com/questions/4876/verbreitung-...
