I would like to nominate Apple for not caring. I own two iOS systems. A Gen 3 iPod Touch, and a Gen 5 iPad Mini. The former has multiple glitches, while the latter constantly resets, and twice recently, freezes and crashes. Both are guilty, but the Gen 5 iPad suffers even worse, because despite being two generations later it actually fares worse than the Gen 3 iPod. If you ask me personally, Apple either don\'t test their products enough, or this trope.

EDIT: Sorry, turns out the \\\'Gen 5 freezes\\\' comment is not an internal problem, it has something to do with a keyboard accessory glitch that I have overcome. Sorry.

As Darjeeling seems to have a love for all things English, you could caveat entries like EnglishRose (and QuintessentialBritishGentleman, in fact) with wording to the effect of - \\\"Darjeeling strives to be this..\\\" or she \\\"acts like she is this\\\", or better still \\\"she was designed to invoke the look and behaviour of an EnglishRose, despite being Japanese herself\\\" -- just like how Kay\\\'s {{Eagleland}} entry caveats that she isn\\\'t American, but plays on the facets of this trope.
In this character\\\'s case, I would say EnglishRose is an Invoked Trope, and can\\\'t be played straight, so should be described as such.

If Darjeeling is a Japanese girl, then I would suggest she can\'t be a straight example of an EnglishRose, because the tropes is dependent on \'\'being\'\' English or at least having an English heritage, not just admiring the nation\'s culture. In the UK, the trope is very much a visual, as well as a behavioral trope, so I\' not sure if a Japanese girl (despite the stylised look of anime) can count?
