Playtest - Questions about the ending (spoilers)

Good point, that's what I thought. So my question changes. What is the message of this episode? Every other episode I've seen has a definite message about our society and what could go wrong in the future if our addiction to technology and social media continue as they are. But I can't see that theme in Playtest. The guy dies as a result of an accident while trialling new technology. Throughout history people have died in accidents, and usually when that happens people investigate what went wrong and how they can prevent it in the future, which would almost certainly have happened after the events in the episode. After he died, if the company was allowed to continue operating, they'd have no doubt set up a barrier around the room or building to block phone signals, or modified the technology so it's not affected by phone signals. The episode said nothing about the rights or wrongs of the technology itself, or how advanced virtual reality gaming might affect our society.

I do have a suggestion for how, in my opinion, the episode could have been better and had a stronger message; He was really in a simulation designed to evoke fear up until the giant spider with the bully's face, he maybe sees a few other scary things but ultimately knows they're not real, then he's unplugged, he completes some sort of questionnaire and gets paid. But the test alters his brain and makes him less susceptible to fear, he becomes a thrillseeker and takes reckless chances with his life in the real world, ultimately resulting in his death.
