I'm not entirely sure the Detian race as a whole doesn't keep an eye out for stray Detians coming into their abilities to give them an understanding of what's happening to them.

Plus, I tend to suspect that anyone Gryphon was sufficiently interested in to sleep with would also get told that he was indeed THAT Benjamin D. Hutchins, who's been around forever and ever, etc. But, who knows.
