Before there can be any question of “awareness” of the concept being a prerequisite, surely it’s first necessary that the concept be explained in some coherent way?
In the comment Zack cites, Raemon said the same when raising the idea of making it a prerequisite:
I have on my todo list to write up a post that’s like “hey guys here is an explanation of Frame Control/Manipulation that is more rigorous and more neutrally worded than Aella’s post about it, and here’s why I think we should have a habit of noticing it.”.
Also for everyone’s awareness, I have since wrote up Tabooing “Frame Control” (which I’d hope would be like part 1 of 2 posts on the topic), but the reception of the post, i.e. 60ish karma, didn’t seem like everyone was like “okay yeah this concept is great”, and I currently think the ball is still in my court for either explaining the idea better, refactoring it into other ideas, or abandoning the project.
