Amazon studios executives had to send Bezos regular updates on the projects in development that included spreadsheets describing how each show had each story element; and if one element was missing, they had to explain why.

storytelling is when you're ticking boxes in a checklist, and the more boxes you tick, the more storytelling you're doing
