Frankly, I'd rather it happen because of something I do when I know myself than stumble into it blindly while I'm infiltrating. Just because I fit someone's specifications then doesn't mean I would later. Besides, making a phone call doesn't guarantee an answer, or that anything would come of the conversation.
[Some of this reaction might be down to the fresh sense of Purpose Naoki left the Grid with. But most of it is how he was thinking about the marks from the second Ambrose told him about them - better to know what he's getting into, as much as any of them do.]
...huh. A couple people who were corrupted and derezzed said, when they came back, that the Automata's goal was to keep the Cryptos - and probably also SAGE - trapped on the Grid. Why they thought you guys were so bad, I don't know, and Green Team wasn't exactly sharing its secrets. I wouldn't be surprised if SAGE never intended to leave in the first place.

But now he has, and here we are.
