* A villager in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemGenealogyOfTheHolyWar'' informs visiting units that a marriage between two people of the same minor Holy Blood will result in all their kids having ''major'' Holy Blood and all its attendant benefits... but, of course, that is a strictly forbidden taboo! (At this point in the game it's probably a bit late to start on the two potential pairings that would give the player four such children, but it's certainly doable.)

** Some water distiller manufacturers would actually put in instructions on how to use them to safely distill alcohol, along with legal, health, and safety warnings as to why to doing so may be a bad idea, but those instructions would provide distilled alcohol. [[note]] This is practical reason for it, when one considers that people often do buy water distilling kits for just that purpose; letting them know how to use the equipment to do so correctly and safely means fewer injuries, deaths, or property damage on the whole if someone decides to use them to distill their own alcohol, while the warnings work for liability purposes.[/note]]

* ''Radio/JohnFinnemoresSouvenirProgramme:'' An Interview Sketch has Patsy Straightwoman interview an actor who cheerfully admits to murd- "[[InsistentTerminology bumping off]]" many people in his career, but doesn't do so any more because he's got most of the things he wanted, and doesn't have the upper arm strength he used to. After a moment's pause, he adds "and of course, it's wrong."

* Done in a meta sense in the Director's Cut of ''VideoGame/DeathStranding''. The original game had an academic paper in it that suggested that the rise of asexuality in the setting was a result of people lacking emotional bonds, which attracted real-world criticism for the way it framed asexuality. The Director's Cut fixed this by appending a response to it from a reviewer who describes its thesis as "unsubstantiated and discriminatory" and says that studies have shown that the rise of (visible) asexuality is due to rising social acceptance and awareness meaning that fewer people have to conceal it.
