I don't feel comfortable trying to pick apart Eliezer's handling of the story when I do not know where he's trying to go with it. If I do not know what a persons' goals are, how can I possibly know if they are accomplishing them optimally?

Most of the things I would complain about are things that seem irrelevant to the main story plot, but I don't yet know that they aren't relevant.
