Anything can be mapped to tropes, but not all tropes are the same. It matters what tropes your life, mission, or organization are mapped to! To skillfully navigate the world (I guess the LW term is “to win”) you must know what tropes are being mapped to you, and what tropes your brain sees your identity as fitting into. That way you can manipulate others’ perception of you (what stories are they telling about you? How are they telling those stories? Do they gain you status and resources), as well as making sure you aren’t fooling yourself.
