Unfortunate Implications as a trope is a real-world YMMV reaction to a work presenting something in it in a potentially offensive manner as a result of what comes off as a writer's lingering cognitive biases, not "unfortunate implications" in the literal semantic sense, even if the implications of Lana saying she would let the world be destroyed if it meant Archer went with it are most certainly unfortunate. Also, entries for Unfortunate Implications need at least one link to an article or video discussing the potentially offensive content of a work in question so that users know that it's not just one troper's knee-jerk reaction to something they construed a certain way.
