That doesn't sound strange to me at all. In fact, at least two people here agree with you.


I don't want to be a jerk but seriously I feel like I'm the only one who's actually reading the threads they post in rather than just skimming them
Moreover, similar cues existed in Abe's Oddysee: namely "zzz" for sleeping NPCs and the rock or grenade count that appears when the player character throws an object.

Also, if this thematic touch improves accessibility, then that can only be a good thing. Lastly, it's just a bit of comic relief in an otherwise dark world.
