Plot hole: At the end of the movie, as Morbius lay dying, he had Commander Adams press a lever that irreversibly set the countdown for the planet's destruction. Morbius said earlier in the movie that they were in a learning laboratory for the Krell children. Why would the Krell have given their children access to something so dangerous to begin with, in a place where the switch didn't belong, and without any safety precautions to prevent an accidental countdown?
