Line 21:
In terms of tropes, ′pataphysics might be the greatest one of all, with all tropes being examples of it as the rules of [[Theory of Narrative Causality|narrative causalities]] called stories.

In these worlds the [[Genre Savvy]] are the physicists, and everything around them is the result of some person asking "what would it be like if [[All Theories Are True]]?" Or maybe it's just [[Artistic License Physics]] for worlds based on [[Rule of Cool]], [[Just for Fun]].
