Trope Repair Shop: Abuse Mistake
1st Mar '24 1:03:02 PM

Crown Description:

Abuse Mistake has a problem in that it's basically two tropes in one, where: (1) something innocuous is mistaken as abuse, and (2) abuse is mistaken as something innocuous. Narrowing the trope down to definition 1 (which has significantly more wicks) and sending definition 2 to the Trope Idea Salvage Yard or TLP (due to it not already having enough examples to split it off) was suggested. Should that be done, and if so, should the retooled trope be renamed?
   28 (Yeas:28 Nays:0)
Rewrite Abuse Mistake to focus on definition 1 (something innocuous is mistaken as abuse), and send definition 2 (abuse is mistaken as something innocuous) to the Trope Idea Salvage Yard or TLP.

If Abuse Mistake is rewritten, rename it
