I have a theory; if this individual was in Ops, then a corridor, their brain may have said - hang on, I was just in Ops, then I left ...and no one was left in Ops. I've left Ops unmanned! This is a dangerous situation for the station!
...and if that's going on somewhere in the mind, whilst one is also running late (merging those worries), at the same time as passing through the middle of a set piece - then yeah your brain is going to have a confused questioning of what reality is being occupied, what concern is to be followed given the circumstances at hand.
...either that or tachyons were involved.
I really wish CBS hadn't sent a cease and decist to that one YouTube channel who was building an entire Ent-D in Unreal. It showed all of Main Shuttle Bay through corridors, a couple lounges including 2-Forward all the way up to the bridge.

Not with Trek, but I'm a former stagehand and I've done amateur stagework. Spent a lotta time building and maintaining sets and props. I've been there.
You're backstage, you've got how everything should look memorized, it's all set up, and for a moment, while it's just you and that dry run, you forget yourself. You're a part of the show.
Eventually you step back, remember it's all fake. You notice the little flaws, notice the floor isn't just right under your feet. You were tired, trying to get something done. A lapse.
I genuinely believe in the magic of the stage. Not in the sense of a spell, but of the ritual. No matter if it's on a screen, or in person, if you do it right, we let go. For a moment, we forget our world and step into another.
