IMO, not only do I feel that it's not unfair, but I think it's the very definition of what a GM should be doing. Different GM's do this to varying degrees of success based on experience, but I think it should be the level to which all GM's should endeavor to achieve. No-one will ever reach a point where they are "perfect" as a GM (unless they are completely self-delusional), but we should definitely try to achieve this.
