Summary
(name): Intriguing, okay. Would there be much chance at all for that adult in question to resist or ignore the Instrument's call without that strong belief, or is it more of a "you've wandered into the lair of a legendary boss, underequipped and without a party, gg" situation?

Nullspeak: They'd begin to sleepwalk if they spent more than a night or two. Likely never become more than that without coincidentally massive biases towards the beliefs that define Speak As One. That doesn't happen often. Unless they saw something incriminating during the day, SA1 would just let them move on.

Nullspeak: Too risky to just disappear people who are only passing through, even with the labor value of a new sleeper.

Nullspeak: Maze to build. Joints wear out, sleep deprivation builds up to lethal levels if they don't treat it like a tax and offer some REM cycles, need a rotating workforce. Temptation to grab visitors is there, but ... they play the long game
