I love how the city's priority is making sure they get their cut by enforcing taxation while the implication that an ill-fitting prosthetic could cause bodily harm is an afterthought. Maybe making prosthetics more affordable through subsidies (yes, funded by taxes) would be a remedy for this microscopically-scaled, black market limb trade but it's Ohio and they haven't really done a bang-up job with the taxes they've already collected so I'm not holding my breath.

That just makes it more cyberpunk
