A fight that goes precisely the same way down to the letter every time I'm in it? A fight that is so heavily scripted I could set a watch to it? But it'd be a pretty terrible watch, admittably.

The Good King EX is a better example of a fight where you just need to know what COULD happen right now and you need to respond to it. But I see precisely nobody even bringing it up as a good example. That's telling.
