Saito entered limbo way before any of the other guys. They get old quickly down there.

So therefore whilst if someone slipped into their own limbo, they would have no means to kill themselves as it was nothingness, in Cobb's constructed limbo they had the means to kill themselves? This would make sense as Saito and Cobb had shared a construction of Saito's office at the beginning.
Limbo MUST be able to be constructed, deconstructed, and reconstructed, no? I mean, Cobb did it. The difference between Cobb & Ellen Page and Fischer & Saito is that Saito & Fischer were dead one level up. If you're dead in the world (or dream) above, you can't just kill yourself in limbo and all of a sudden have your heart start beating again.
I find it crazy (and mind-blowing) that if the top indeed continued spinning at the end, this would require us to add a whole other level of analysis to our current analysis. My friend wants to watch this movie and I may give it another chance. This time, however, I will most likely be high.
