That I can agree with completely. And Shreyas, I agree with you as well. I just wanted it to be clear that the "more fun" principle works really well when the rules support and enhance the way we actually play, but is not necessarily true when we try to make the way we actually play conform to the way the rules work.
I imagine ideal actual play as a body, in which the text procedures are the skeleton and muscular system. The players (including the GM, of course) are the nervous and circulatory systems that make that body dance.
