That's what a Base Breaker is, though: a character or creator's decision that inspire "Rage" from a sizeable chunk of the fandom in all directions. It's a no-win situation within the fandom; whatever side you choose, you're gong to get lambasted by the other side.

But the fact that the base is broken means it's not fundamental when the base as a whole is concerned.

The words above are to be read as if they are narrated by Morgan Freeman.

Right. If it's a Base Breaker it's not a Fandom Heresy.

Oh huh, I kind of forgot this discussion. My bad.

Since there seems to be a mild disagreement about wheter to cut the examples or not, should we make a single proposition crowner?

so it's been more than a week, and the crowner is clearly in favor of cutting the examples. Can I do so?

Yep. I'll put in an admin "No examples" warning.
