Yes, I have found some choices that have more words and could give more clarity but I don't think they're needed. If a choice needs explanation I think it's enough to put it in brackets like Choice 5 (Recap Bloodbound) or Choice 2 (Choose your hair). If it's just a choice with one option and a picture you could say just the text, like how someone recently changed the "..." to "Gaius tree", or some of the outfit choices where they have the name instead of "Choose this look!" If there weren't so many choices that only have a few unnecessary words I would say it's a good idea but since there are you'll either have walkthroughs with a bunch of "..."s and "I should"s, sometimes nothing more informative in one chapter. But this of course can also get complicated if the choice already has some condition.

I think the numbered system is much better since it's far easier to refer to them later, sometimes across several books (recently there was a reference to a DD1 choice in DD2) rather then using text and option names and whatnot. Also when discussing some missed or premium/exclusive/diamond/conditional/whatever choices that are between 2 choices. You just say it was between choice X and you don't have to describe everything.

I am very on board with only having the outfit names though, this "Buy this item" stuff with a note is very redundant and makes the walkthrough lengthier and less concise than it could be IMHO.

Anyway, I guess we'll see what the community decides. I just wanted to add my thoughts so you can see that it doesn't seem like an easy task.
