You might get more interaction with this essay (story?) if you explained at the beginning what you are trying to accomplish by writing it. I read the first two paragraphs and had no motivation to keep reading further. I skipped to the last paragraph and was not further enlightened.
Thank you! I started writing the previous post in this sequence and decided to break the example off into its own post.
For anyone else looking for a TLDR: this is an example of how a network of counterfactual mechanisms can be used to make logical commitments for an arbitrary game.
I’d been thinking about “cleanness”, but I think you’re right that “being oriented to what we’re even talking about” is more important. Thank you again for the advice!
Just my two cents:

Put those two sentences at the beginning of your post and my objection goes away!
