I think that there needs to be an expansion on "how we actually play" to include rules which are never actually invoked, but yet still of import or not include them. Like, if we are playing Riddle of Steel, and we never actually use the combat rules, they can still *matter* for play, 'cause they are very different than most other games and how you act around an armored man is just going to be a different thing.
Can we separate "rules we never use, but would if we could" from "rules that we never use, and wouldn't use ever?" How?
