The first part of this postulate contains the axiomatic observation that all games are created by a designer, whether they are: e.g., (dynamic/static) or (stationary/non-stationary) or (sequential/one-shot) non-cooperative games, and importantly, whether or not they are intended to represent a non-cooperative Stackelberg game, they can be mapped to a Stackelberg game. I.e., the game designer is the leader who is totally rational and honest, and the followers are mapped to the players of the designed game.
