Spoilers

undefined:

Spoilers are information that certain system members may not know about and that are deliberately kept from them. Outsiders may be asked not to reveal spoilers to the relevant headmates. The information may be revealed to the whole system at a time when they are ready to process it.

There may also be mechanisms in place internally that keep members from revealing spoilers to the relevant headmates, or even to erase memories of said knowledge should it preemptively be revealed.
