...so this is more of a preemptive safety measure for keeping track of every resident when an event is in progress to prevent- what, death?

[Evelyn is a mite tetchy about this subject, given her very recent and very vividly gruesome demise mid-event. The circumstances, by many accounts, had been no different. No one could have foreseen what would happen, and monitoring each individual feels tantamount to authoritarianism.]

If you're proposing an expedient means of requiring each person to "check in" somewhere, with someone, to ensure their well-being I do agree that the cause is noble, but the enforcement thereof nigh impossible.
