Hanging Around

Grace was put into coma by the people who cared about him. They (especially Yáo being Yáo) probably double-triple-quadruple checked everything. They watched him sleep for those first few days — I doubt they went into coma immediately after leaving Earth's orbit. They probably talked to him, assuring him that he'll be okay.

Ilyukhina's coma procedure was probably supervised by Yáo. He made sure that everything was in order, but — he is just one man and he is not a doctor. There was much more room for mistakes.

When Yáo went to sleep, he was alone. He had to rely on the technology completely.

That's so okay. Nobody owes online creators, or creators in traditional media ANYTHING, even if our work has helped them in some way. If an artist shares their work for free, and then they make you feel like you owe them something, then they're tricking you, because they want to be able to survive as an artist under capitalism. Nobody should become a member because they feel like they owe it to us-- they should do it if they like what we're making, and they want to try to ensure that they can see more of it. Nobody should buy merch because they feel like they owe it to us-- they should do it because they like what we're selling, and they want to help fund the content that they enjoy. And nobody should feel like they have to watch or interact with any creative work that they don't like.

But the thing is, i imagine the original intention was probably to have everyone upset for just a little while, before the finale would've come out and the current drama would've been resolved.
