Take three deep breaths and recite when tempted to make some Administrivia/JustifyingEdit. Many of our very own tropes (including and especially our ArtisticLicense archipelago) tend to get very nitpicky about following or failing to follow core sciences so even we could do with repeating it to ourselves regarding whole tropes.

The closest thing this trope has to TruthInTelevision is the concept of ''[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thought_Reform_and_the_Psychology_of_Totalism#Thought-terminating_clich.C3.A9 thought-terminating cliché]]''; as Wiki/TheOtherWiki puts it, "a commonly used phrase, sometimes passing as folk wisdom [...] its application as a means of dismissing dissent or justifying fallacious logic is what makes it thought-terminating."

When we consider that the very point of ''[=MST3K=]'' was itself to mock and ridicule movies for breaches of logic and defective storytelling, we encounter a sort of ''[=MST3K=]'' Dilemma: a glib assessment of the situation would have it that the show was hypocritical with its insistence that the viewers subject it to less scrutiny than they themselves brought to bear against countless films, but a more careful consideration should lead us to discern that different subjects should be held to different critical criteria. Indeed, [[ExcusePlot what passed for plot]] in ''[=MST3K=]'' was little more than a goofy premise to facilitate the mockery of bad movies, and labelling this as "just a show" doesn't make it any less good. [[note]]Amusingly enough, the show did later provide an explanation for how the hosts eat and breathe, making reference to the equipment that creates the air, huge boxes of food, the Umbilicus (a space-elevator style hookup via which the Mads deliver things physically to the satellite) and a farm somewhere on the ship, which Mike never noticed.[[/note]]
One should be careful that they do not go too far and use this to justify saying that TheComplainerIsAlwaysWrong. Yes, there's no point in getting excessively worked up and nitpicky about something that, at the end of the day, is just a work of fiction. But using it as a way of brushing off any and all forms of criticism is an equally dangerous attitude to have, and in creators can be a possible sign of a SmallNameBigEgo at work utilizing DearNegativeReader. Conversely, anybody who hopes to promote a movie and insists it's "just a movie" and critics should "just relax" while also expecting they take seriously any [[AnAesop Aesop]], CentralTheme, SpeculativeFiction, {{Spectacle}}, or just anything beyond superficial amusement from it is insulting the intelligence of the audience. This is not about critical appraisal, but what is necessary to tell a story. When criticism targets those things that were unexplained because it is irrelevant to the story structure and motivations, ''then'' you can invoke BellisariosMaxim.
This concept is OlderThanSteam, [[JustForFun/TheZerothLawOfTropeExamples also being used in]] Creator/WilliamShakespeare's ''Theatre/AMidsummerNightsDream'': Puck's final speech, which starts "If we shadows have offended/Think but this and all is mended..." can be condensed into "'Tis but a play/I'faith, I should really just relax." This was actually a kind of disclaimer, to mollify people in power who may have construed the subject matter of that and other plays of his as blasphemous and obscene. It still applies to this trope, though.
