I agree that it's hardly likely to be what many people do but what cause anyone to leave their traditional faith behind? Somehow it's not doing for them what they need spiritually. What make Christians become Jews and vice versa? And how do we explain Madonna? Nevermind. IF the Watchful House exists it has to be pretty tiny. I'm liking Joerg's descriptions of its possible history more and more.

Again, I'd hardly think it'd be a common choice and I personally don't think they'd be the main source of any converts.

Well whatever people like. A tiny western order that wouldn't have
attracted much attention doesn't bother me that much but if people
prefer the AOT that's fine too.
