It’s not a person, the holodecks are just designed in a horrifying way. We learned from an early TNG episode that when the holodecks do an uncontrolled shut down, they reclaim all the matter within them. It requires a special intentional function to leave the people behind.
That’s a whole other question. The replicators of TNG era weren’t protein resequencers like they were in Enterprise. They were simple matter/energy conversion. They would reclaim the matter and store any remaining energy in the ship’s reserves.
In Voyager they said the holodecks ran on a completely separate power supply than the rest of the ship, so maybe they never really intermingled with the replicator systems
Any time sex on a holodeck is referenced, I can’t help but feel sorry for whoever has to clean it up.

So don’t worry about it, they’re self-cleaning
So all that Earl Grey is really Barcley’s spunk huh?

Well, good for the bloody holodeck.
This was addressed in Lower Decks. The lower deckers have to do it!
Yeah, that’s where the image is from, assuming it showed up for you.
Oh, no, it didn’t. Still isn’t, either. Odd. And I’m on the web, not using an app.
Weird! It’s this one.
Thanks. Yep, that makes the comment make more sense!
