Maybe \\\"intrinsically vital to storytelling itself\\\" is pushing it too far. This basically limits us to tropes which are impossible to avert, or aversions of which bork the work beyond all repair. Which leaves us with:
* AnthropicPrinciple
* CelebrityParadox
* Consistency
* TheEnd
* FourthWall
* LikeRealityUnlessNoted (powered by audience expectation- maybe you could avert it with constant \\\"Bazinga! Not like reality at all\\\" events?)
* MostWritersAreAdults
* MostWritersAreHuman
* PointOfView
I think a better criterion is \\\"Given a random work, chances are excellent it\\\'s going to have this trope\\\". The pothole to SeenItAMillionTimes is a nudge in that direction (after all, there\\\'s it and then there\\\'s \\\"seen it every single time\\\").
This is how stuff like OneSteveLimit, BackStory and RomanceArc qualify.
Notably, BlackAndWhiteMorality is very borderline in these modern, cynical times.
