Ok. I see that.
Let's hope active (or even inactive) players jump in and opine.
A CFI (IMHO) really cut's to the pith of the game, and might
offer some insight into the way players think and respond to a
given set of extant conditions and the Rules that govern them. 
The Rules really are the game (subgames not withstanding).

I thought I had something more profound to offer, but it fled.
