That is, frankly, bullshit. "Let's think super hard"... "Romeo and Juliet" could be any two people named Romeo and Juliet. But that's not what you thought when you saw the names, is it?
Just because your Allgemeingbildung is sucky enough to only know (or at least have vaguely heard of) Shakespeare, but not Strindberg, doesn't make "Miss Julie" any more generic than "Romeo and Juliet". It just means you need to work on widening your literary horizons, not just your hacker ones.
