    Because it's not enough for D&D to have the kitchen sink, it has to have multiple kitchens' worth of stuff.

    It is one thing to suspend your disbelief. It is another thing entirely to hang it by the neck until dead.

    The concern is not realism in speculative fiction, but rather the sense that a setting or story could be real, fostered by internal consistency and coherence.
