It's also plausible to me that the orbs were always restricted to the Hall, but the system worked because every wizard could Apparate there for a couple of minutes every few weeks to check if there were any new prophecies about them, and that was a lot better than nothing.
Well, it's better than nothing, but it still sounds pretty silly. It'd be like if the Interdict of Merlin operated as a gradual amnesia and every few weeks you had to apparate to a Hall of Memory to retrieve your lost memories from an uber-pensieve (minus, of course, any powerful spells you might've learned) - it's weirdly roundabout, and has obvious failure modes.
