Aug 9, 2016 at 14:01 comment added Noam D. Elkies True. So I should (with acknowledgement to you) add this as (v), or perhaps (i'). Do you have an example? I suppose one could be concocted by taking an arbitrary cover of an obstructed surface that's not of general type, but one could also ask for a "genuinely" general-type example, thought it might be tough to define this notion precisely. Are there any "global obstructions" known in this setting other than Brauer-Manin?
