The magnification rule is not a metaphor. The silo and its surveillance systems are made using tech well advanced of what is currently allowed. High level magnification would allow people to see circuits and nano tech that would raise questions that could not be ignored.

Down below the lowest level. According to the books. No sideways mining so Silos don't mine into each other.

The stairs are made to separate the upper, midst and down but the most important is to delay messages from each level but also make it hard for rebellions. If the downside or midst rebel then it takes a while for them to climb. Remember it would take like a day for the sheriff in the top to go all the way down to the generator

Pretty obvious reason for the lack of elevators, least to me. It is meant to keep the upper and lower classes separate. It is to stop rebellions. With the cops having radios only they can radio up for when the lower levels rebel. Since they are the mechanics they could override elevators to get up faster. Since they have to run the stairs TO rebel. Doing that with weapons and equipment to fight versus going down from top.
@Mitsoxfan2 ай бұрын
I agree. I think the way the bridges were blown in the dead silo shows how it would make it a lot easier to sever the levels if they had to.
@NatashajbАй бұрын
But an elevator means less people rushing at once with less means of shielding. So you're right, but your logic doesn't track

A point that sticks in my brain is: Where are all the bodies of those who have gone out to clean gotten off to? The views of the outside don't seem to show any bodies. Another thing is if the silo is hundreds of years old the cemeteries are likely to have gotten very overcrowded.

Second season is currently releasing weekly. Up to ep 3 now. The series has some changes, some good some I'm not sure about yet, written with help from Hugh Howey. I've read the books. Because of these changes there's surprises even for book readers. The series feels a bit slower than the books but is tense enough. It's up to the last third of the first book now. It's really cool seeing the silo brought to the screen. As a book reader you're gonna be frustrated from time to time.

Or, instead of an experiment and given that the human race is nearly extinct probably due to their own stupidity, the Founders wanted to ensure the survivors in the Silos continued to survive at any cost. Limiting the occupants to their own work, with very limited movement, prevents rampant growth beyond the means of the silo. Whether it's right or wrong wouldn't come into it, it may have been the best of a list of bad options
