1) rorschach's fate is left in dirty greasy fat fanboy's hands. greasy fat fanboy and rorschack share discontent in common. fanboy = readers of comic books, moore digging at his audience as well as handing them the mantle of integrity.
2) rorschach's fate is left to chance - rorshack's fate is left to interpretation. rorshack = violent ambiguity?
3) i thought rorschach was the only compelling figure in the book and veidt's plan is shit precisely because it cannot include rorschach (who cant be killed since there's a 50/50 chance he lives on in greasy fat fanboy) -- which is also why your plan (i won't say it's moore's) is shit, in a way i can't fully explain yet. I will say it smacks of dirty realism, realism being the front for an anxiety: here, i'm guessing, powerlessness.
granting Orc a short leash doesn't make him any less repressed.
i havent seen the movie.
