No.

Where is the fun in that?

If I may be so bold and voice a negative here, seeing the work of months undone and having your mission stakes reduced to 'useless, probably' about 5 turns in because some bloke pressed three random buttons isn't all sunshine and rainbows either.

Incidentally, it also gives rather heavy incentives for keeping even tighter IC leashes and ever increasing lists of precautions, two things most people agree are the worst thing since unsliced bread.
Well, the thing about it is that if he gets the box then he presses 3 buttons again, and the game ends because the big bad guy is dead.
This tech his the most powerful thing in the game. It trumps origin, the altered, the Doc, Steve, The UWM, the Haebi. It is more powerful than Multiversal Eldritch gods. It is more powerful than the Black Die. The name is highly misleading, and ur possession of it is a grave intercosmic mistake. it should not be named the Death Cube, though it brings death. it should be named the Omniversal Control Unit.

So on the scale of "Ooo, that tickles" to Maurice's Dick, just how fucked are the newbie teams? I can probably outlast my teammates 'cause robutts 4 lyfe, but should I just go ahead and start digging their graves, or should we keep trying to explore and maybe survive(somehow)?
They're fine so long as someone escapes the current fun and brings the newbie's anchor codes with them.

Down at the bottom of the ocean. Beneath tons of brine which would crush you down. Not into broken and splintered flesh, but into thin soup. Into just more of the sea water. Where things live that aren't so different from you, but you will never live to touch them and they will never live to touch you.

ah, but if it became a legitimate part of the game, it wold become subject to the rules of the game, including bad rolls. Plus, the need to charge the spells with concentration and all kinda limits it a bit, and the level of power available could be tied to the functional strength of the concentration so applied. In effect, that wold severely limit it. But, as it stands, it is indeed very powerful. perhaps part of the nature of that power comes from the inherent weakness it has, in that it cannot be properly applied in this multiverse.

but i want to use the deathcube to clone my head a billion times, set up my billion brains as a ghostship, become immortal, then pass the deathcube to myself in the past! D:
can't i just be allowed to do that one little thing

What does the Lurker actually do?  Other than alien death penii.

Well, that and the fact that it's currently terraforming reality to what it wants, the Lurker is already omnipresent, which is why it screws with any Origin related stuff wherever you are in the universe, that black stuff is just it making the universe into what it thinks is better.
