Those scenes belong to different routes with different actions by the MC in both cases. She can help him win or she can tease him, she can be friends or be rivals, she can go share or ntr, etc. Those are all different actions, behaviors and so on. And all those choices lead to a scene, different in each case, instead of the classical "scene/no scene" division you were talking about. Granted, there is a more one-route direction in some of the other relations, but it still is not a kinetic novel, even though it could include more meaningful choices.
