I completely agree with your comment. It's a bit of a slowdown from play when you search everything but at the same time if playing tabletop you'd have people trying random things that don't light up for interaction of a video game. In the end it's only a slight slowdown anyways and does add to immersion so it's not terrible but more a time waster is all.

I haven't looked at mods yet, I like to do a first playthrough vanilla usually but I completely forgot they were a thing here, so thanks for the reminder.
