* I used to hate the auto-[[Smart Bomb|bomb]] mechanic found in some [[Shmup|shmups]], believing that they were artificial extra lives. However, I've recently taken up training myself not to rely on bombspamming, and this is where Fridge Brilliance kicks in: since auto-bomb automatically fires a bomb if I get hit (rather than [[One-Hit-Point Wonder|losing a life]]), it takes my mind off of panic-bombing, allowing me to focus on a very important aspect of shooters, especially of the [[Bullet Hell]] variety: dodging bullets. It's a skill that tends to be stunted if you compulsively manual-bomb when there is a chance of [[Yet Another Stupid Death|dying idiotically]].
