Building on the prison-planet hypothesis… we know that Earth isn’t chaotic by accident, but intentionally kept in this unpredictable, emotionally intense state - what if this setup also works both as a containment zone for incarnating beings and as a kind of “theme park” for higher-level intelligences?
In this view, the environment produces a wide range of powerful experiences — fear, love, conflict, breakthroughs, transformation - that apparently don’t occur in more stable or higher-dimensional realms. Those experiences could be valuable as energy, data, insight, or growth material for whatever intelligences oversee or interact with this reality.
From this angle, Earth serves two parallel purposes:
A containment environment for IS-BE's under limited awareness, and
An arena that higher beings can access (possibly through bio-spiritual-genetics-engineering, i.e., hybrid bodies or other interfaces) when they want to explore intense emotional or narrative states that don’t exist where they normally reside.
And humans are just expendable, extra actors in someone else's drama.
