I was hoping to have help with examples, and this was written more for you guys, then as a final entry thing. So I was informing those who would be helping me.

"Decay is a general term for becoming worse and less like the original"
Half right, decay is to break down. "Less like original" has nothing to do with anything here. As far as the use of "decay" here, please read the following.

Ace, with Adaptation Explanation Extrication- any explanations omitted are covered by this troop. Adaption decay only covers explanations omitted that directly and continually break down AKA decay the story.

Same with Induced Plot Hole, not every plot hole will break down the story, some are a minor break in Willing suspension of disbelief and don't have significant impact on latter story, no crack form and travel the story.

This trope covers all differences between source and adaption that continually decay the story.  Whether they be AEE, IPH, or something else. So there is overlap, but its not significantly more specific or general then these, nor is it redundant with either of these. And I have seen many other entries with greater overlap then this one has.

And Ace, you read A wrinkle in time, but you apparently forgot most of it else you would not need to ask what tesseract means as a verb. In short (as best I can, might have a detail or two wrong) tesseract the verb, is to fold space to travel great distances(and/or take shortcuts through space itself) It is how the group of protagonists get around to various surreal places, how their father got trapped on a distant planet.

BTW, how come some entries don't have any examples at all?
