Neither. It is simply a description of one possible interpretation of
the picture, without judgement if that would be a good or bad thing to
strive for.

The mere fact that I'm not sure how to read and what is intended can be
seen as a problem.

By offering a description, Sebastian can check if that is what he is
trying to get across or not, possibly tweaking it to either encourage or
discourage that interpretation.

Ryan, I really wonder what the root of our communication problem is.
