Battleships-POWER UP!

To test whether or not they are part of the logical chain of command. If they don't have a commanding officer, then they are outside the chain of command, and therefore shouldn't have a multibillion dollar piece of military equipment.

Actually, a test for chain of command would be whether they are FR5'd or not, based on whether they adhere to FR2. (An effective system, which whilst can be abused by official factions, is in place.)

What you are suggesting is whether their RP is fully integrated into a faction's RP. (Which is a rather useless test as this would require internal knowledge and constant checking up and in on the faction, it's roster and so on, which means they may as well be part of the official faction.)

Of course, that goes against the whole idea of being independent. (Pick your play time, devote how much you want to.)

Edit: Also, that would be multi-million. Somehow I think you are trying to make RL=FL.

Anything I say is not intended as offensive, and to try and deliberately misinterpret it as such would be an attempt at trolling via misrepresentation.

It's not a conspiracy, it's localised bias. They're not intelligent enough to form a conspiracy.
