For games with GM prep, knowing those two Beats for each character is an invaluable tool. I'd almost say that's a Player-to-GM signalling tool to communicate what they want to see more of that is disguised as an advancement mechanism.
That’s definitely what it is! They don’t hide it at all in the book. The GM is meant to take the Beats suggested by each player and consider them during any prep, and push toward them in actual play.
