"So, having places named for out-of-game-world reasons is detrimental to
the fun of players who like their world to be self-consistent and self-contained. I don't think it's unreasonable to try to make Glorantha as accesible to and enjoyable by as many types of role-players as is feasible."

On the other hand, I would wager that there are MORE gamers who enjoy the
"multiple levels of reality" that such out of game world names entail.
After all, if most of us were the types to say, "damn it, a cigar is just a cigar" ALL the time, why would we bo doing this in the first place?
