*** Not to mention that Rainbow Dash is the ''last'' member of the cast who needs that lesson; previous episodes have seen her learning ''not'' to think too highly of herself.

The trope\'s only for things that the story actually builds too, not just what people want to see happen.


* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: Some were disappointed that the episode didn't end with a reveal that the whole thing was Rainbow Dash writing a SelfInsertFic.

** The entire concept of Daring Do being real. While this was a possibility that people have speculated and are pleased to see confirmed, others don't like the idea at all, finding it unnecessary and completely ridiculous even by MLP standards, and being uncomfortable with the weird elements this fact introduces to the show's world-building. Equestria Daily did a poll asking whether people preferred Daring Do to be real or fictional in the show's universe, and it turned out that [[http://polldaddy.com/poll/7630361/?view=results the fandom was more or less split pretty much equally]] between "I like it", "I don't like it", and "I don't care either way".

** Similarly, Twilight's and Rainbow's debate on the several plot-lines in the Daring Do series can also be seen as how bronies would nitpick each and every single detail when expressing their viewpoints.

Added DiffLines:

*** Moreso, many have pointed out that if the goal was the morale "never put anyone so high on a pedestal and forget how important you can be too", the show had already had several other ponies that Rainbow Dash admires (like the Wonderbolts) that they could have used, instead of making Daring Do "real" in-universe.

* AlternateCharacterInterpretation: Daring Do. Did she really plan to get captured with Dash just happening to be in the way, or did she make it up to cover her earlier behavior? Also, how much is Daring truly dismissive of Rainbow Dash, and how much is it just Daring being lonely in her line of work?
