Yes Teppler, it's an anomaly. I tried to be a jerk years ago and claim Hiero while a group was elsewhere in the crypt, per the standard rules. The higher-ups (Rogean and Uthgaard) agreed that Crypt would be treated as a single camp (and emp another camp) and that you didn't have to maintain a presence at each named spawn to claim it. However, if you left the crypt to goto emp, you possibly relinquish your rights to the crypt.

One time I was killing Hiero and Duke and the group that was at Chef (containing Calabee) wiped and asked for my help with a CR since they knew I had a rogue parked at the door. While I was still dragging their last 2 corpses, a few of them decided to be jackasses and bumrushed the crypt and claimed it (it was easier to get down there then). I logged back on my shaman, waited for them to leave to goto emp, and reclaimed Hiero and Duke. Well they came back, didn't agree with my claim, and KSed a non-cloak Hiero named from me. I petitioned, and didn't get a response, so I trained the fuck out of the group 10 minutes later. Well it turns out Ambrotos was there watching and was about the hand my two named back to me, but he decided not to because of the train lol.
