I think I agree with your reasons for doing it that and I wasn't really trying to criticize your game in particular. I was trying to make a more general statement about the types of problems that we seem to find ourselves solving over and over again and the fact that that occurs as such a typical case rather than replacing those structures. I don't know how to make solving structural problems into a game. I guess I did want to be a little critical though just to insert the comment that it's also important to make sure we teach kids that representation matters and that system design structure should not be taken for granted.
