By passing the trial of the Holder of Wisdom, you get to know you'll die a horrible death at the hands of someone. You get all the details of both your death and your murderer. Considering that almost every involves a chance of getting a FateWorseThanDeath, and some tests are [[FailureIsTheOnlyOption guaranteed to kill you]], getting your death predicted with 100% accuracy at least guarantee that you will never get stuck with a FateWorseThanDeath. It still could turn that one of the Holders is your murderer, which would make for a really awkward moment once you face him/her/it.

Any brief perusal of the Holders' trials reveals just how utterly impossible they seem to pass. Anyone who attempts them risks undergoing any number of [[FateWorseThanDeath fates worse than death]], and the rewards are minimal (and sometimes are themselves [[FateWorseThanDeath fates worse than death]]). So why would anyone ever want to go about getting just ''one'' of the Objects, let alone all 538 of them? That's what a certain knowledgeable person (or persons) with an interest in acquiring some (or even all) of them asked. So a clever plan was made: why go through the trouble of attaining the Objects, when you can just have some other idiot get them for you? Concisely written instructions on how to acquire each Object have been written and distributed on the internet, with the sole purpose of tempting budding Seekers to set out after them. Then, it's just a matter of finding the Seeker and taking whatever Objects he has, by any means necessary. Mind you, it's not very easy either, but ''much'' safer than undergoing the trials.

* I saw that part as the receptionist unintentionally willing the button into existence and changing the requirements for obtaining the Object, since she mentions not noticing it was there until after she started thinking it might be nice if fewer people entered the door since "it must be getting crowded in there by now".

Almost every Holder has a part where some people instantly fail for some reason. Maybe this is why the Holder of Denial's name is... well, [[ShapedLikeItself the Holder of Denial]], since you have to deliberately [[GuideDangIt not follow a certain instruction]]. The button has to be there for ''some'' reason.
