> People ... are increasingly unwilling to accept ambiguity and uncertainty in fictional universes.
When I was young and read scifi, it was more solitary and personal. I read it, thought about it, and moved on in a solitary way.
But over time, things have changed. Now I read more fiction, I select the fiction differently, and I communicate with others about it.
The big difference seems to be that when young I encountered my fiction, and nowadays I choose my fiction.
Do other people do this? Does it lead to higher expectations?
