  We reconsider the case of light vectors coupled to anomalous fermionic
currents, focussing on the interplay between UV and IR dynamics. Taking as a
general framework the gauging of the Standard Model accidental symmetries, we
show that it is possible to devise an anomaly-free UV completion with
mostly-chiral heavy fermions such that anomalous Wess-Zumino terms are
suppressed in the IR, thus relaxing would-be strong bounds from the
longitudinal emission of light vectors coupled to non-conserved currents. We
classify such scenarios and show that they will be extensively probed at the
high-luminosity phase of the LHC via the measurement of the $h \to Z \gamma$
rate and the direct search for non-decoupling charged leptons.
