IIRC, it was his sled does not assume that everyone already knows how it will turn out. First, it can be subverted. Second, it can be from a show that Mr. Rock Hermit has never heard about before.
What's the deal with spoiler tags on these? By definition, something that qualifies for It Was His Sled should basically be impossible to spoil, as the point is "it's a plot twist that everyone, even people who don't know the work, already know."
Just figured I'd check. Basically, I worry that any example that requires spoilering might be misuse because if it's truly an example, it wouldn't need them.
