User:SOTO/Forum Archive/Inclusion debates/@comment-25421326-20200308132630/@comment-44905785-20200308151938 I agree with this proposal. I would also like to point out that Rule 4 only states that stories "intended to be set outside the DWU" are probably invalid – it does not address stories "intended to have an ambiguous status within the DWU". This may be a subtle distinction, but it's an important one, as it places Death Comes to Time in an entirely different epistemological category – one which Rule 4 does not exclude. The above quote from Nev Fountain confirms that the story is intended to invite audience interpretation – the entire audio, therefore, is much like the artistically ambiguous "half-human" backstory suggested in Hell Bent. It invites the reader to make up their own mind as to how and whether it fits with broader continuity. To declare it invalid is to make that decision for the reader.
