So I think we should start using u_i(a_i | a_{-i}) for the first one. Then, in my example: - Payoff u_2(x,y) will mean 1 uses x and 2 uses y. - Payoff u_2(x|y) will mean 1 uses y and 2 uses x.

If there a typo? U(y|x) instead?
I don’t think so. My preferred pronunciation of u_i(x|y) is “the utility of x given y”.
