This is confounding correlation with causation and we have no basis to believe there is actually something happening here. I've removed the conjecture so that this just states facts

The '''Unmade''' are a group of nine{{book ref|sa3|1}} ancient and twisted [[spren]]{{book ref|sa3|62}} on [[Roshar]] comprised of [[Splinter]]s of [[Odium]].{{wob ref|1672}} They are regarded as minions of Odium,{{book ref|sa3|1}} but not all of them continue to do his bidding.{{book ref|sa4|i|2}}{{book ref|sa4|112}} While they are traditionally depicted as personifications of destruction or forces, some of them are cognizant individuals.{{epigraph ref|sa1|45}}{{epigraph ref|sa3|91}} Each Unmade is endowed with vast and terrible powers,{{epigraph ref|sa3|89}} although the intelligence of the Unmade vary drastically.
 
Strangely enough, the ''names'' of the different Unmade seem to serve as indicators of their intelligence. [[Ba-Ado-Mishram]], the most intelligent of the Unmade, has three parts in her compound name,{{book ref|sa4|interlude|2}} while [[Re-Shephir]], [[Sja-anat]], and [[Yelig-nar]] have two parts in a compound name and have displayed a level of awareness.{{epigraph ref|sa1|45}}{{book ref|sa4|interlude|2}}{{book ref|sa3|31}} Furthermore, Unmade without compound names at all, such as [[Nergaoul]] and [[Ashertmarn]], have shown themselves to be mere creatures of instinct.{{epigraph ref|sa3|106}}{{book ref|sa3|120}}
