 * delete One could propose such a trope in SF, but this nugget of WP:OR isn't it, and if there is real literary analysis out there to which reference can be made, it's anyone's guess whether they would use this name for it. Mangoe (talk) 11:57, 13 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete as WP:OR. It's possible that enough academic study of the "ascend to a higher plane" trope exists that an article could be written on this topic, but even then, I'd argue that we lose nothing by scrapping this page and starting from scratch.
