Although the player may answer "Catcher" when presented with question 4, it does not cause the player to fail the test. The player is instructed to take a seat at his desk, where they are given the SAFE test. Before the Sole Survivor is allowed to enter Covenant, they must first speak with Swanson.

Therefore it is unknown how many synths the test actually catches or how many humans that pass the SAFE test are replaced later. Not to mention there is no mechanism for determining false negatives, and anyone who takes the test and passes is not tested again. However, the test has proven to be imperfect and frequently inaccurate about one-quarter of those who take the test turn out to be failures. Consequently, humans that answer that way (one out of four), for whatever reason, fall under suspicion. The fourth question is considered the key to the test, as answering "Catcher" has a correlation with being a synth, even if the individual has no idea what that role actually is. In the aftermath of the Broken Mask incident of 2229, an orphaned Roslyn Chambers devoted her life to creating a way to identify potential synth infiltrators. Those who "fail" the test are kidnapped and taken to the Compound, where they are subjected to interrogation and torture.

Officially, its purpose is to keep the "undesirables" out, however, its true purpose is to root out potential synths. The SAFE test is a screening entrance exam required to gain entry to Covenant and is used to monitor those who pass through the settlement.
