Vincent-
I totally dig the idea of getting explicit with the Techniques.
I also totally fear adding more "-ist" words to my jargonocabulary. :P If you do come up with nicer names, I'd be very happy.
That aside- Trivial Simulationist doesn't really seem like worth grouping here. It's more like a follow up to Lumpley Principle- "the group decides what is plausible and acceptable". What might be worth exploring though- is the degree to which the written rules attempt to define what plausibility is... After all, a great deal of Tech Sim stuff tries just that("Falling Damage", Encumberance, etc.), while Proceduralist stuff leaves it completely to the group.
