This page has been added to the Gambit Index and the Failure Index, with Springtime for Hitler listed under it on the Gambit Index. If for some reason this trope flubs it, those are the places to delete it from.

Springtime for Hitler has also been listed as a Sub-Trope. It might fall under The Same But More Specific, honestly, but the fact that it's been around longer combined with it being such an amusing trope gives it reason to stay, I think.

Wasn't this launched with only 3 hats?

Health sure is versatile. It's possible to be both light-headed and dim-witted. At the same time, no less.

Is that bad? It had been on YKTTW for quite some time and had gotten plenty of feedback, and there was a consensus that it didn't exist and needed to. I imagined bumping it just for more after a consensus had been reached was excessive.

There was no mention of the description, positive or negative, in the feedback, though. I'm thinking about tweaking it so that it better suits the final title.

The lack of crosswick is bad, though.

Was just about to start that. Was planning on waiting a day to be sure that there weren't any more issues first, though, because crosswicking adds quite a few items to the list of pages that would have to be repaired if this were to fall through.

If that concern is not present, though, I'll start the crosswicking now.
