So if a dude rode up to you on a giant rabbit in real life this would only be interesting to you if the rabbit performed significantly different than a horse? Because your character can see the description. The GM's words are the things your character experiences. Beyond that, if the Player finds giant rabbits interesting, then the game is fulfilling its purpose which is to entertain the Player. After all the character doesn't exist.
