I don't think they ever did really give a good rationale for that -
and this became more and more of a problem as each week the agency
spent more and more time solving problems caused by the agents sleeper
families and lives. One clue might be how incapable the agent
personalities seemed to be of hiding their killer tendencies and
disdainful psychopathic facial and vocal inflections when they were
awake. But basically the whole project seemed like a hell of a lot of
expense and headache for no perceivable advantage.

I think it would have made more sense if the meek personality was the
"real" person and the killer persona was the created one. I thought
Slater was compelling enough to tolerate the incoherence, but I guess
not enough other people did.
