You're the one who said, "On the one hand, it is interesting that enjoyment value might be higher for those who have a plot spoiled; on the other, there is something to be said for authorial intent."
Are you not suggesting authorial intent is more important than pure enjoyment value? I apologize if I misunderstood. Even so, it would appear that they are not the same in many cases, as shown by the two studies about short stories.
But what if this is true? What if a majority of people enjoy experiences after being spoiled more than they do if the experiences are not spoiled? What if taking steps to do just that (exploration hints, tips, suggestions, carrots, spoilers) is quantitatively more enjoyable for more people than the current status quo?
I appreciate the reply. Hope all is well.
