My brain is a little too fried after work to fully pick apart those examples - but yes!
Tying together "What are we here for?" and "What are we doing right now?" is totally why I spent a lot of time talking about procedure & directive rules ( http://bankuei.wordpress.com/2010/06/09/procedures-vs-directives/ ), and momentum ( http://bankuei.wordpress.com/2008/08/10/creative-vectors/ ) when people can easily and consistently make that transition.
In a lot of cases when people are saying, "This game is so intuitive and easy to learn!" they just as often are are talking about how well that text speaks to them and helps them connect those two (which may be variable based on which areas any given reader might jump onto shorthand references vs. need full handholding).
