What I mean is that your theory pays out as a ban on stories about any singleton, including in stories where the singleton does un-singletonly things. If that’s the case, any author who expects there are RSI-dynamics in their story is verboten, which is rough if it makes sense!
My understanding of your dynamic has a high false-positive rate: if I wrote fiction about Napoleon, it would look power-seeking (because he was), but this doesn’t seem like a useful red flag to me.
