"The whole narrative thing has been kiboshed by the switcheroo of the keywords and the narratively important words."
I don't think it has, for the simple reason that if Jon has "Play Fox and Geese 13" then he's a fair bit better than most of the clan, most of the time.
Likewise, with his "Speak new Pelorian 13" he's got a chance of understanding what the Lunar General is saying to his aide-de-camp while his brother, standing right next to him, can't. The level doesn't matter too hoots, he can do/is/knows something/someone other people can't/don't.
Cheers,
Ash
