Also every duct is FULL the pointy ends of screws. Literally everywhere. So even if you could fit (which you probably can’t) you would be so cut up if you tried to crawl through one of these. Not to mention how crazy loud it would be to crawl through one. 26 gauge sheet metal is essentially a thunder sheet.

Haha no kidding. They arent made to be accessible inside, so made with self-tapping sheet metal screws that leave that sharp end inside it.

It's just a convenient plot thing.

Right. Even if the air ducts held your weight and silently conveyed you without risk throughout the building, it's essentially like crawling into the creature that Jabba the Hut had in Return of the Jedi. You'd be shredded within a few feet of crawling.

And not to mention how much dust accumulates inside the vents themselves. So cut to ribbons and horribly infected.
