Context matters.  In all stories.

Totally agree. However, the definition of context is a bit problematic. You probably can't tell the reader every possible thing that may be required to evaluate the story. You can also include lots of things that are true but that also lead the reader in a particular direction. That is where things get more difficult to judge.
