I'm with you in this. Maybe only people who are not yet overtly burned out on hack writing (which is what tropes usually are, crutches and short-cuts taken by lazy writers) are interested to find the connections they'd missed, something like "Wow, Garfield's personality is just like Capt. Kirks! I never noticed that before!!!!" (just a made up example, do not attempt to understand it at home.)
