The trick works nicely when the system invalidates a declared intention. But if someone (with authority enough, let us say a GM as a director) tries to do it directly, telling that something happens and afterwards saying it was a delusion, everyone gets annoyed. It is part of the social mechanics of the game. What you say using your authority is always relevant for the audience. And it is measured according to the authority you have at that very moment.
