OK, forgive me for going Sherlock Holmes on you here but there is a rather large inconsistancy, (well, to me anyway), I've found.
See how I go:
Monday, June 11, 2283, 2014 hoursWith a heavily encrypted brief message, Sethra announced an impromptu meeting in his cubicle, sending the chime to Byron, Zuzana, and Eddie.
By my count that's four people in his room, (the sudden introduction of Zuzana where I would have thought it would be Veronee throws me a bit but to continue), this is borne out further on where Zuzana says:
"I borrowed these from an Environmental supply cache. Four suits won't be missed, especially since they're disposable after each use."
And further on:
Byron showed off his pistol, and explained its function, which drew whistles and utterances of genuine admiration from the other three...
A bit further:
...and the foursome bumbled their way forward in darkness, then clumsily boarded the large robotic vehicle.
I think that pretty much establishes there are four people on the way to the Shaft yet when we get there, there are five of them: Sethra, Byron, Eddie, Veronee and Zuzana.
It seems someone has teleported in from somewhere

It seems Perry and I have little to do after midnight here...sleep is obviously not on our agenda
