Yes, and this doesn't help for those feats that appear to come out of left field, like Sunset Leap and Snarl Darkness. It also doesn't really help with feats/spirits that seem rather specific, like Wind Above and Wind Below. Tell me where in the Hero Wars Players Book I would look to decide what these are about. I find the support you cite a bit wanting.

I still contend as to how "beginner friendly" HeroQuest can be with this philosophy, but I'm willing to wait and see.
