Questions that torment after GameOver (The Talos Principle)

As a matter of fact, not being a fan of portal-like games, Iâ€™m unlikely to go through everything new or study video tutorials.
Nevertheless, it would be curious to find out - why do we need a prism in a secret cave at the level of Egypt, for which you can use a retro-pixel sword in the Middle Ages and give a kitten only if Shepard survives (he just always dies for me because he played a pirate)?

These are all Easter eggs, of which there are a lot in the game. Well, if you look at these things from the perspective of a character, you can explain this by the fact that virtual reality was the engine of a certain MMO game, plus the presence of numerous bugs and holes in the reality projection system.

But Easter eggs must have some kind of decryption? Let us say not "universal" - explaining what exactly happened, but at least simply pointing to the source of the Easter egg, but in an obvious way?
Here in the same Witcher - Defensive Magic Regulator and Global Unlocking of Gottfried - briefly and clearly. In theory, it should be no worse here?

This. Easter eggs are a secret from the developer: a reference to another game or a banal (read meaningless) joke that simply has no place in the game itself.
