Regarding the name spoilers tag, I understand that we shouldn\'t put spoiler tags outside of examples, but wouldn\'t that defeat the purpose of the spoilers-tagged tropes regarding the character\'s identity attributed to the characters themselves? For example, TheReveal that Krall is [[spoiler: Balthazar Edison]] is supposed to be the major twist of \'\'Beyond\'\', so wouldn\'t putting his real name alongside Krall defeats this purpose? I\'m just curious because it seems strange that we reveal his real name in his character title yet spoiler-tagging the tropes that reveal it. Feels counterproductive. You might as well make a new character example of [[spoiler: Balthazar Edison]] altogether, call it \'\'\'SPOILER CHARACTER\'\'\', then put all the spoiler-tagged tropes in there.

A neutral tone is pretty much an impossibility.
