"largely through the agency of character creation and activity" - another key point, I guess. The character isn't just your tool for exploring the setting; it's your tool for creating the setting as well. Whenever your character acts, he activates a setting element (or NPC/PC).And character generation can easily be expanded to setting creation. In addition to answering questions like "what's your Strength?", you can answer "where does your enemy live?", "what's going wrong at your place of work?", "what was the last thing you read in the papers?"
