Agreed on this.
Just because game designers might get things wrong isn't a reason to
avoid having the feature.
Sure, I can imagine all kinds of future directions (e.g. a GUI
doctrine editor, decoupling the doctrine from the game design, etc),
but we need to start somewhere, and putting the hints in question into
doctrine or GDL tables is the right place to start.
