multiple possibility lore aka no canon

I stumbled across a piece of text in Secrets of the Ruined Temple from Mage the Awakening. It says on page 12:



Secrets of the Ruined Temple takes an approach that some players might find odd. You won’t find a complete guide to Atlantis, with all the mysteries neatly explained. No, this book deepens the mystery of Atlantis, by propounding multiple possibilities and a whole lot of new questions. The purpose of this

book is to help you imagine your own version of Atlantis, and work the clues to that version into your chronicle.




This is true for the entire new WoD line. All the settings give you multiple explanations of what the history of the world might. In other words it doesn't give you answers, only more questions.



Is there any other RPG that does this? And what do you think of this approach?
