All of my yes.
While I have encountered very few instances otherwise, I feel Kingston has been pretty good about supporting a very casual and understanding attitude regarding playing the game and the "2nd" definition offered feels very true for this community. The vast majority of folks (again, only a very small selection has not been this way) are very good about communicating what they are meaning to do with their actions while also being mutually respectful and helping one another with missed plays.
(I know it is my own personal bullshit that makes my time with these games difficult for me)

That's the goal... always a friendly game - even if you are competing - and those "gotcha" or "well actually..." moments are a big feels bad for everyone involved.

40k is particularly painful when it comes to gotchas because there's virtually no concealed information, just colossal mountains of public info.
If I'm playing Infinity and what I thought was a mine suddenly reveals itself to be a Spetznas with an HMG who proceeds to clean out the midfield, I was 'got' but not 'gotcha'd'. In 40k though you're constantly blindsided by new rules you never heard of before, even though none of it is actually secret or beyond reach.
Probably most of my 40k games have involved an unintentional gotcha where somebody gets blown out because there was a strat they didn't know about or something. I played a practice 1k game on the weekend and just explaining the basic passive rules of Dark Angels was already an exercise in futility let alone all the stratagems that might affect your opposite number's game plan...! Even information volunteered usually comes too late to be fully actionable.
