How can a scout know they are successfully sneaking ("You no longer feel stealthy") but not know when they are successfully camouflaged?

... which leads to the somewhat absurd situation where a would-be camouflaged scout orders their pet to nudge them to test the success of the camouflage.
(let's face it, the pet would know where the order came from)

If the answer is that they know they're not stealthy because they hear their own footsteps, then why can't a would-be camouflaged scout simply look down at themselves to check the validity of their cover?


Dulrik explained this before that when you use the skill, you have the natural expectation that you didn't fail at it. This primarily works when you're mastered at either one, but there is still a chance to fail, albeit an incredibly low chance.
