Added a third point under "Justified". I don't really have an example in my head of where this was applied, but I'm pretty sure it's been done before. I'm not sure if a player with trope has to be done before in order to qualify this page, so I'm not the most certain about this entry. However, if the mod reading this knows an example of this justification, then feel free to keep it there I guess.
