From how I see it, the trope is about a designated arbitrary idiot who escalates problems and nobody considering to remove them from the picture. It is not someone who creates conflict due to an oversight or viewers headcannoning alternative solutions.

I similarly don't think Laconic and Playing With pages match the description.

^^ Good places to ask this type of question (whether something is a valid example of a trope) are the Trope Talk forum in general and the Is this an example? thread in particular.

Created Trope Talk page on Just Eat Gilligan. We can discuss the issue and others about it there.
