Dupes are NOT suffocating when entombed in a tile

Ok, then please explain why my first and only dupe death was caused exactly by the dupe building herself into a insulated block.. I was considering reporting _that_ as a bug, but I'm fine with having it as an occational building hazard...

Unfortunately the bed time bell rang just when it happened so no one could free her in time.

I've had this happen numerous times and sometimes they will suffocate and sometimes not.

It may have something to do with the amount of oxygen readily available around that dupe.

I guess Dupes breath from their feet than. I've never entombed a Dupe's lower body, I even wonder if there's an animation for that

If they entomb in water or in CO2 they suffocate. Their head still seem to be unaffected. Gonna do some other experiments.
