Line 335:
* [[Insignificant Little Blue Planet]]: Humanity rules an Empire of a million worlds that stretches across the galaxy. Thing is, not one of those is Earth. According to ''The Machine Crusade'' (written after Frank had died, so possibly not canon), humanity [[Nuke'Em|nuked earth]] [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|in a first strike against the]] [[Robot War|thinking machines]]. In the main series, the majority of humanity has no idea where their race evolved.
* [[Instant Oracle, Just Add Water]]: The Guild Navigators adapted to life in a spice-filled environment which granted them precognition and the ability to navigate at FTL speeds. They spend most of their lives inside of zero gravity tubes filled with spice laden air rather than a tub of water, but same concept.
* [[In the Blood]]: Apparently all Harkonnens are born evil and all Atreides are born good. Then Paul merges the bloodlines...
** Subverted by the possibly non-canonic prequels. Even Feyd-Rautha had potential to be good, had he been allowed to be raised by his parents instead of taken by his older brother to be raised by the Baron. Xavier Harkonnen is a noble warrior and good friend to Vorian Atreides. It was only after the Harkonnen/Atreides schism that the "evil" Harkonnen started being born.
