Yes! The scenes I remember liking best from the Lackey books I read were generally here's-my-treehouse, or let's-chat-over-dinner, and not the action stuff at all. Which is why I kept reading them; they were heavily skewed in favor of the parts I liked.
Even I noticed the "highborn" handwaving, though, and I know I read these during my especially oblivious years.
