Anyone else think this trope could use a bit of cleanup? I\\\'m seeing a lot of \\\"examples\\\", particularly in Video Games for some reason, where the hero literally \\\'\\\'has\\\'\\\' to break it [[{{Railroading}} because they\\\'re not allowed to proceed otherwise]] (e.g. activating the Noveria mining laser in \\\'\\\'Mass Effect 1\\\'\\\'). And a number of other examples are cases where the hero breaks it because breaking it is explicitly stated to be the LesserOfTwoEvils (e.g. the HeroicSacrifice in \\\'\\\'Metal Gear Solid 3\\\'\\\', the ending of \\\'\\\'Mass Effect 2\\\'\\\'\\\'s Arrival DLC, etc.), making the example a case of the PerfectSolutionFallacy. It just all feels very myopic to me.
