I always thought that Lambda blatantly "cheated" by giving Kanon a body in EP5, and Battler trolled Erika in EP6, using her false impression of the matter by switching back to regular Shkanon. This works for me doubly because Erika is aware of EP1-4 too, and Shkanon is never a necessary element in solving those.

True. Maybe, like the magic circles in the cousins room, Lambda was taking something typically attributed to Beato, and ramped it up to 11, into absurdity? I try not to take the knock/letter riddle too seriously, because similar to the cheese riddle and the coin/cup riddle, I assume Ryu was illustrating a point about how our logic works with red statements. Clock tampering would be cooler.

Yeah pretty much. Though this has led to the (amusing?) mental image of the other siblings attempting to subdue Krauss to the Benny Hill theme a bit later.
