Eh, pedantry is a form of competitiveness, and all of these activities seem to foster pedantry (e.g. "that's not part of this canon!").

  That way everything is competitive. Pedantry does not have to be competitive at all.

    I think pedantry is often a way of asserting status ("I know this thing, you don't"), though I agree it doesn't intrinsically have to be.
