Padparadscha ends up drifting around the Core with much less intent - it's useful to pick up what information they can, but this isn't their area of expertise and interest the way it is for Rutile. Instead, they begin to head upwards, to see the kind of view they can get of the surrounding area. There must be some benefit to building with glass to the extent the people here seem to, and one they can think of is being able to survey one's surroundings easily.

In that sense, they're probably more of a visitor, but in the end, they go in the direction that will get them where they want to be the most easily. It doesn't seem like the engineers have much time to spare for troubling themselves with people who are in the wrong place.
