I think that also applies to extremely fictional stuff, whereas how it says it is vs how it actually is.

Like Harry Potter's magic system, the books act like it's a hard magic system, with laws and rules, but it's one of the softest magic systems ever written, so I'm going to criticize Harry Potter's magic system (you know, in addition to everything else).
