THANK YOU you are the first person I've seen besides myself actually get that the game is a storytelling exercise with rules.

It caused a huge kerfuffle last time a played because the dm only invited me to the group to give therapy to the woman he had a crush on, whose husband only agreed to play because he has gaming addiction problems and he obsesses over the board game elements and minmaxxing. Now if they had told me I was going to be expected to give therapy to this woman, I would have just not joined the group. Instead, we got 3 lousy sessions in and they still owe me money.
