RealityEnsues requires there to be an expectation that reality \\\'\\\'wont\\\'\\\' ensue. Otherwise it\\\'s just LikeRealityUnlessNoted. It\\\'s not RealityEnsues if it\\\'s something the work doesn\\\'t imply one way or another wouldn\\\'t be the case. For example, \\\"Darcy hits the switch on the TV. It turns on\\\" is technically reality ensuing but we have no reason to think it won\\\'t.

Of the examples, only the Blip one seems to count, since the only post-Blip works write it off for awesomeness and humor.
* The keycard example is less RealityEnsues and more LikeRealityUnlessNoted. Do we have a reason to think her keycard would still work?
* The astronaut example explicitly cites an earlier work for how this has precedent. \\\'\\\'Endgame\\\'\\\' took an exceptional amount of time to show how devastating the Snap would be, so going \\\"... and people wouldn\\\'t like the effects of the Snap\\\" is just continuing the trend.
* I agree it\\\'s just too fantastical an example to really say what reality would possibly ensue here.
