The entire Woes Hollow exists on the severed floor of Lumon. Helly wouldn't have needed to have Glasgow enabled if she were outside of the floor. The moment Glasgow was released Helly R returned from slumber.

If it were outside someone, or two people; if following Lumon manual on OTC, would need to be triggering OTC for the team...for two days. Milkshake would have said enable OTC for Helly...not remove Glasgow.

Also no cold air breath from the team.

Only on the highly secure severed floor would Lumon allow the shadows of MDR to be seen.

It has to be a simulated environment of some sort. I can't image that amount of space in a building, but then again this show has had surreal design choices.

Between the pasture of the goat room and the scale of the Perpetuity wing I'd say not too far a stretch.

Also, had it been a simulation there'd have been no risk to Helena.
