Jolt brought me here to discuss a point, so I might as well air it out.
"Characters are not required to complete all the levels of a given template class in uninterrupted succession." does not necessarily mean they are not required to complete the template class altogether.
The key phrase here is 'in uninterrupted succession'. This is a prepositional phrase, if I am not mistaken. "Shoot him." and "Shoot him if he pulls a weapon out." Are different sentences, carrying different complete thoughts. If you gave someone the second set of instructions in written orders, and he immediately shot the man because 'you said to shoot him', I don't think you would feel he had done your orders as written.
