I'd have to question, if there is a redirect that already works, why have to rename (there's no point in losing eg.: wittyness and inventive if we already have clearness and conciseness), but yeah, in this case the original trope name seems like it is exaggerated.

Redirects don't make up for weaknesses in a main trope name.
I'm on the internet. My arguments are invalid.

I'd suggest "Yes But What Does It DO", but that sounds too vague.

What is this thing about again? The general style of modern day pharmeceutical marketing?

So we're actually doing it this time?

- 1 vote for Side Effects Include.... The original title is just way too unwieldy. While we're at it, somebody needs to fix the link to the trope picture. That's not from a Jib Jab cartoon, its a music video by The Austin Lounge Lizards, called "The Drugs I Need." Youtube it.

I'd be for Side Effects Include... too. I like the current one but it's not very practicable as trope title.
People aren't as awful as the internet makes them out to be.

This trope is a few years old. I think it was around when I first came here.
And in all that time, it's gained a mere 98 wicks, and 320 inbounds.
This might have many factors, but this trope has probably the hardest to spell name in the entire site. Sure it's a good parody of the names of these products, but it's so long and clunky as a trope title.
I would personally just swap with the redirect Side Effects Include..., but there are plenty of possible names that can catch on.
