The reason I stated we need not discuss the nature of a narrative at this time is rather simple: something else needs to be discussed first.

At no point does T:VS mention variable narratives. The stage-plays ruling discusses ephemeral media, which is quite different. Given the above objection to the "all variable narratives are invalid" stance, and the existing case of the variable narrative Flip-Flop being valid, it would be premature to shut down that part of the discussion early.

In fact, Flip-Flop is similar to these video games for another reason: it is fixed media which can be experienced in multiple orders.
