Seems to me you're overthinking the simple difference between being a passive observer and being an agenty mover and shaker.
I think you are underestimating the importance of being well-informed for being an "agenty mover and shaker". Look at this guy and these guys for example. Were they "agenty movers and shakers" ? They certainly tried!
Even the famous Sun Tzu, hardly a passive observer himself, devotes an entire chapter to the importance of being well-informed.
Or in an old Arab saying, the dogs bark, but the caravan moves on.
