In our work, we adapt the N-cycle scenarios with odd N to multiple independent observers which measure the system sequentially. We analyze the possibility of violating the inequalities as a function of the number of observers and under different measurement protocols. We then reinterpret the results as an open quantum system where the environment is divided into fragments. In this context, the results show the emergence of noncontextuality in such a setting, bringing together the quantum behavior to our classical experience. We then compare such emergence of noncontextuality with that of objectivity under the "environment as a witness" paradigm FUNDAÇÃO DE AMPARO À PESQUISA DO ESTADO DE SÃO PAULO - FAPESP CONSELHO NACIONAL DE DESENVOLVIMENTO CIENTÍFICO E TECNOLÓGICO - CNPQ COORDENAÇÃO DE APERFEIÇOAMENTO DE PESSOAL DE NÍVEL SUPERIOR - CAPES Fechado
