Ryan's actions/involvement may not be the direct point of his stepping down; it could be his association with his wife; her involvement in the cult.

Been to the Biltmore, twice. It's an amazing structure. They only give you a glimpse into a certain set of rooms.
I can vouch for the swimming pool in the basement/cellar. Empty both times I was there. What do you think those "ropes" are used for on the side? Hhhhmmmm….
