He is supposed to be a MI Analyst but he doesn't ever seem to want to analyze the intel he has haha.

And I can't count how many times Tanya asks him if he has read the journals and he hasn't. The annoying part is they usually start to argue and so if feels like we never really get out of Tanya whatever discovery she has made. It seems like Tanya has made herself into a zombie expert, but that knowledge seems to stay mostly with her. If we do lose Tanya at some point that will be quite a loss.
Sometimes it's just audio-drama mechanics coming out. They have to tell us things rather than read them, so sometimes it's better to do it this way. Michael hadn't read the report yet from Carl, and if he had they might have responded to Boulder sooner. Story-wise, it was better that he didn't, since it was intended for Boulder to fall.
