Completed. I enjoyed looking at others' solutions

Was a bit confused as to what we were trying to do here. But I went down the route of making a macro to randomly select one of the synthetic substitutes for the sensitive information. Then played with field mapping to use it again for when we were substituting in for the other field. I assume the logic here is you want to randomly impute for each individual field so that sensitive combinations cannot still be picked up even after randomizing.

This is another one of those challenges where I read the prompt, immediately said no and didn't tackle it until a few days later. That said it was very fun and I think I have introduced an appropriated amount of randomness.

Thak you, @Qiu!  I liked the use case of Unique Tile tool in the proposed solution - this was a very elegant approach.
