>in fiction then uncontrolled/unlimited contradiction should be fine I'm not saying it's fine in general. I'm saying it doesn't matter for pop fiction Popular fiction gets retconned all the time. I'm fundamentally disagreeing with "not contradicting yourself too much" mattering at all for fiction that's successful with the masses If you ever feel tempted to think that quality writing matters for popular success, just remember that lewd Twilight fanfic has sold more than a hundred million copies
