Am I correct in concluding that post-\"clean up\", characters who display knowledge of tropes and point them out in-universe no longer fit? If so, what do you call characters who figure out that a trope is happening and advise accordingly? What\'s the standard for this trope now? How much knowledge does a character have to display?

I guess it\'s irrelevant that the result of the clean-up is forbidding what was once a lot of fun and led to a lot of humorous entries and listing of funny moments in media. Since the term has been redefined, what does the site permit users to call examples of characters who deduce what the result of a situation or action will be purely because it involves a trope someone exposed to fiction would be familiar with? If an occurrence of such knowledge no longer qualifies as Genre Savvy, what *is* such an occurrence called now?
