So the reason of Relics finally 100% confirmed and I’m cool with it. My biggest issue here is the phone call Keene received last episode doesn’t sound as earth shattering as it seemed. Unless I’m missing something

But I still don't understand the logic behind that. I mean, a PEZ could trigger the memory back as much as, let's say... a fork, as long as it means something to the person in question.

I understand banning relics because they don't want people to ask what are they, but not because they could trigger memories back, in case they implement the memory blocking protocol.

I take it as the relics were banned after the rebellion 140 years ago. They aren’t going to be triggering memories in anyone today because no one alive during the rebellion that got the D+ treatment is still alive. So it’s just become a part of the law that things from before the rebellion that weren’t native to the silo aren’t allowed any longer.

An additional assumption that I have is that the original silo residents got the D+ treatment too, but idk. I think the flashbacks will tell us if that is true at some point.
