@SymbolicCity honestly, I think most people I see are honing their style of play on television (hence my thread from a while back https://xoxo.zone/@clarity/113183080865479002), which has established itself as a form as being almost entirely blow-by-blow with "montage" being the exception to the rule. But you're right that modern writing style also leans on the exact same techniques, so it's pretty inescapable wherever you look. Maybe GMs could stand to read more Borges lol.
