Cut for now. Everything except the last sentence may have merit to be added back after the event has been out for a while and readers really feel that it's a "saving throw".

However, as you said, it's too early to claim that right now. That last sentence, though, is just unnecessary and speculatory.

So, how do we cut the page?

Ugh, what is it with people adding Author's Saving Throw to announced premises they like? That definitely requires the work to see if it was saved or not.

To cut you can put it on the Cut List and cite this ATT.

I just came back from removing prerelease ATS

I say give ATS a 1 week waiting period since the throw in released as it's the smallest waiting period we have that can be enforced. Telling to wait until the work is out isn't working. Thoughts about that?

I'm just tired of people misusing the trope, especially when it applies to unreleased or future works.

Should I ask "No Recent Examples Please" cleanup to add a 1-week waiting period?
