Watching Thimbleweed Park "let's play"s is painful

Keeping only the important dialog options is a huge hint/spoiler system.

I can’t pinpoint a specific example but I remember that several Lucas adventure games have used this technique in the past and, yes, it might be perceived as a spoiler if the only option kept is an important piece of information.

Maybe keeping both the important option and a few unnecessary ones might be a simple and viable solution. Actually, I think that some games did exactly this.

He went there, moved the pointer around a lot of time and he completely missed the large hotspot of the poster on the wall, which would have helped him a lot.

If you are such type of player like this Let’s Player (e.g. hectic mouse movements, prone to overlooking stuff), then maybe you should consider playing such game genres together with friends.
It’s often more fun and you have another pair of eyes often preventing those specific situations.
