It's an interesting idea, but in the 1613 rebellion MP was well known by
both sides to be anti-Lunar.

Still, later on he seems to spend a lot of time in the Jonstown temple,
without being arrested and executed. Possibly the Lunars think he's
repented, and is at least neutral and willing to help them, when in fact
he's even deeper in the rebellion than he was before. That makes him a
source of information both ways, not really trusted by either side. The
rebellion leaders know what side he's really on, the rank and file don't.

Is that what you're suggesting? If so, it makes sense to me.
