There might be a few things I disagree— I think ABSOLUTE freedom in a game that needs the rules of magic defined might work against it more often than the opposite for example. But I like the doc idea, it can help my ideas not be run over this time around and make me invested for years.

Oh, yeah.  It's not absolute.  But generally its been sculpted by players within the game, then at breaks such as seasons the general game info can be added and built to so that prospective players get a better idea about the world they're considering jumping into.
