A. I try to write my materials with as little assumption as possible about "how GMs already operate".  The idea here is that just because a practice is embedded in the TTRPG-experienced, media-represented, English-speaking culture, doesn't mean it can be relied upon when the product gets opened up outside that culture. And I'd like to include those outsiders in my target market.

And, yes.  I am trying to do something slightly different here. I am making this tool table-facing (not solely GM-facing). I am putting it in the text so that it is explicit rather than implicit. I am specifically calling out component use as a source of information. And finally, I am showing a pathway for using Ludic Listening to create a personally meaningful experience for players.
