They have this complex system set up to show somebody a fake reality when they step out of the silo, just so they can clean the camera?
It’s a trap for skeptics, so they eliminate themselves from the silo before they can cause bigger problems.
Skeptics see cleaners acting like everything’s fine outside and think it’s a signal that the official story is a lie. So they ask to go out themselves, seemingly confirm that they were right, and send the same signal to other skeptics inside.
I'm sure I just need to continue watching, or probably read the book. But it doesn't make sense why the deception is necessary. I'm guessing we're going to learn more about the revolution and why all the knowledge and history was lost as well as why curious people are a bad thing.
