re: GM as part of the audience
The might be true, for some people. But those things don't particularly interest me. And when I do find them interesting, then I want to play as a pure player, without contributing to the design, so that I can experience it as fully external.

You are quite right, of course.
However, I have a feeling that this community of designers (the community that Vincent is part of) consists mostly of people who ARE really interested in engaging in the story as participant and audience, and being surprised by the outcomes, in the role of the GM.
Nothing's wrong with that either, of course. We all have our preferences!
