I don't recall anywhere the Teams are instructed to give specific guidance on this to the people they are helping.

That is a 3rd edition versus 4th edition schism...
3rd was about saving civilization and 4th implies strong if not outright saying the Project is there to preserve and rebuild the United States of America.
So when championing one or the other it helps with everyones understanding if you let people know which edition you are concerned about.
