I like "agency" because it splits off the idea of "playing well" from playing on a competitive level to being able to engage the game fully.

IMO the point of game design is to get players to a place of agency in the quickest way possible. The smoother the path, the more accomplished the design.

A reliable thought to distinguish Enjoyment from Play and ordinary life.

The perspective of a Legend: Reiner Knizia

-“Brain trials” as first draft, until get excited
-Play test is the lifeblood of game design
-Games reflect our life
-Avoid "curse of the ideas" to create a product
-We are sitting around the table as equals in board games
