The devs are not the playerbase and cannot be treated as such. If a rapist kills your mother you can call the rapist a jerk.

But two different mechanisms have achieved this outcome and you'd be a fool for believing they were identical.

This is a bad comparison. Nobody on earth has control over a Hurricane. P99, on the other hand, is built by humans, managed by humans, and designed to manipulate humans to play in a specific manner.
The only difference between Sleeper and Manastone is the dev's allowed Sleeper to be awoken by a player rather than a timer. Due to the high probability of Sleeper being awoken, there is technically no difference between a randomized timer and a player triggered event.
I am not sure why this logic is difficult.
