I've begun to see the Tower as more of an "aquarium".

With that in mind, I imagine if the outer wall were to be punctured it's more like the Shinsu would spill out. Then there is the fact that Irregulars aren't hindered by Shinsu, and since they are from outside the Tower I imagine one would be empowered, not hindered, if an outsider came in contact with Shinsu. Although, I do think Regulars, and all the other natural inhabitants, could find the outside hazardous, or maybe they just lose their ability to manipulate Shinsu since it appears to be absent. Its hard to tell when we haven't seen a Regular outside yet.
