Ah, yes. I should say that Apocalypse World offers a whole array of GM-is-impartial mechanisisms, along with all its other GM mechanisms.
When the circumstances demand an impartial call, the game's rules arrange things so that the GM can make the call without any conflict of interests. But the circumstances don't always demand an impartial call; usually they demand a synergy of creative impulses instead.
So, Tim, I agree. GM impartiality accounts for only its piece of it, not all of it.
