Do you have documented evidence of this occurring in a permanent BPL

Again, do you have documented evidence of a BPL installation causing any
of the above interference, to anyone *other* than amateur radio operators?

And then, do you have any evidence that people did *not* take measures to
try to eliminate any caused interference?
