I clearly agree that the book isn't analogous to [[The Gallifrey Chronicles (reference book)|The Gallifrey Chronicles]] or [[AHistory]]. It would be closer to [[TARDIS Type 40 Instruction Manual]], were that to be ruled invalid. An in universe reference text, something we would call "non narrative", rather than "non fiction".

As for Miles commenting, it was originally written as an "in universe guide" for other FP writers. Pretty much everyone agrees on this (Nate's blog says that it was inspired by Warlords of Utopia), but I'm having a hard time finding an original source. [https://www.madnorwegian.com/192/books/dead-romance-faction-paradox-tie-in/ Mad Norwegian Press] calls it "an original essay by Miles on the mechanics of the Faction Paradox universe". Not a short story, and makes it very clear that it's about the mechanics of the universe, which is what my contention is.
