The rules exist for the most part to enable the players to interact with the world the Dungeon Master is presenting. There's zero point in having rules created simply to let the DM sit behind his screen and cackle with glee at the amazing and fantastic things his NPCs are doing to each other.It's like watching a modern day cop movie that takes place against a backdrop of New York City. You, the audience, don't need to see what's happening three streets away to an Hispanic couple and their two kids calling the cops to report a missing dog. Sure, the NYPD is involved, but unless the hero (who is there to provide the audience with their focus) interacts in some way with this couple and their missing dog, that's just useless information.Cheers,Cam</blockquote>
