With SHL stars being in the public eye more and more, it is important that players be aware of their presence and do their best to stay in the good graces of SHL fans and the internet at large. No team's management group is going to want to deal with a player's rant about 5G turning the lizard people into commie nazis or whatever going viral and putting them in a less than favorable spotlight. It is also important for social site savvy players to know when people are not worth the effort and to stop all interactions with them. That is why for Nat Emerson his offensive read and block stats are so important. With an offensive read of 17, Emerson is pretty good at not saying anything that is too controversial. Or if it is controversial it is something benign like who the best pokemon is (Charizard BTW). Having the strong sense of what is offensive and what is not allows Emerson to chirp fans and be seen as lovable and not a total dick bag. For when things do get too heated Emerson is quick to throw out the blocks and keep the experience on his end enjoyable. Those two stats allow for Emerson to have a strong presence on the internet and come out smelling like roses and with his sanity in tact.
