One could then use the data itself along with the

save timing information from the data holes AND the sprocket holes for later processing,
analysis and recovery.
But for any one person, probably more trouble than it is worth.
There was a vendor (EECO, Remex, DEC, ..?) that didn't depend just on the sprocket
hole. I'd have to look through the manuals
on bitsavers to remember who it was.
