Summary	0016800: Opening a comm channel to all leaders bypasses greeting them individually
Description	After selling resources, buying knowledge or otherwise using the "all leaders" option, I'm no longer presented with choosing from three greetings when I contact them one-to-one for the first time. It doesn't apply to leaders I can't contact, so if I use the skip, then reach level 1 in speaking to the Spire, and then contact the Spire, I get the greeting (but can then contact all leaders again to skip greeting the Spire.) I'd be down with having to greet leaders regardless. It'd worsen the charlie foxtrot of having to talk to aliens when you can barely run a diner, and that's my idea of fun. Plus the skip is a bit abusable - greet all the leaders you dare, then open a comm channel to everyone and skip the rest.
