Do some of the entities “let people go” to go give their statements?

I’m doing my annual relisten and the thought struck me. Now, obviously not every single statement giver dies or is taken by whatever entity they encountered, but I find myself wondering if the ones who DO succumb shortly after their statements were only given that temporary reprieve so they could go to the institute to do so. I don’t think it’s a conscious decision of the entities/avatars, but we know that they are all deeply entwined and cannot truly be separated. I mean, how else would the eye be fed? Of course, it could also just be a way to draw out the experience (and ofc the podcast couldn’t exist if people didn’t survive long enough to tell the tale). Either way, I think it’s probably just a necessary tool to drive the narrative, but i do find myself impressed that real world practical questions like this can still have a reasonable explanation in the universe, even on my nth relisten.
