>>8672 >Your position is being super autistic to the seasons over the canon as a whole. LOL, yes.
>I'd argue that one episode in isolation is just that and ignore it. Yes and no. I don't consider FiM to have a clean and perfect canon, that is kind of my point, but I would both say that continuity errors like this do matter sometimes, especially if someone is being autistic to show canon as a whole already.
>That is different as that is a subtext within the episode. The lesson that it is trying to be an analogy for in the real world doesn't rely on the divorce happening within canon. Even if it would be pretty implicit with having them separated. I get what you mean but where I would come at it is debating if, say, the writers intent for the episode points to divorce/separation and if it is implicit in the episode should it be seen as "canon" to the episode itself? Perhaps I am obsessing with it but I think of things just with a little more interest than just a fluke when something off happens. FiM had a lot of flukes and stuff that got ignored or dropped I think with canon, fanfiction, and individual episode considerations it should be more widely considered over glossed over.
