The misuse here is less with the article itself and more with the quotes on it. The trope is about how, having no other choice, the hero chooses lesser evil. Every quote mentions the name of the trope...and then talks about how it is not a thing, doesn't happen and anyone who thinks it is a thing is delusional. I'm sorry but when I go to any other article with quotes there are actually quotes that present an example of the trope, describe an example of it or talk about its nature. This is the only trope I've seen where every quote is an example of a Defied Trope. If we don't have any quotes about actual trope (I know I could only come with main character of Transmetropolitan calling people stupid for not choosing a lesser evil), maybe we should delete the quote section enteirly?

Since the issue you brought up involves quotes, I'll recommend taking the issue to this dedicated thread that handles quotes.
