Abstracting majorly:

  Are you content with absolutely defining that any in-game structure
or mechanic should never be part of a game?

My concentration here is on the concept of "should" and its relation
to obligation, righteousness (both zealotry and correctness), social
concience, etc.  I am not fond of such generic "shoulds", and suspect
that they are all unexamined mental comforts,
