A theory stating that extraordinary evidence, even when proven true and confirmed beyond reasonable doubt, is systematically treated as ordinary, minimized, excluded, or ignored in the short and medium term. Where Normal Anomaly Theory addresses anomalies (exceptions to patterns), Ordinary Extraordinary Theory addresses evidence that should be transformative—findings that should change how we understand the world but are instead treated as mundane, unremarkable, or irrelevant. The theory explains why genuinely extraordinary discoveries often receive yawns rather than celebrations, why journalists bury leads that should be front-page news, why policymakers ignore evidence that should reshape policy. The extraordinary is made ordinary through a thousand small acts of dismissal: it's not that exciting, it's just one study, we already knew that, it won't change anything. By the time the evidence can no longer be ignored, its transformative potential has been blunted by decades of being treated as nothing special.
Example: "The study should have revolutionized the field—but Ordinary Extraordinary Theory meant it was published, cited a few times, and then quietly forgotten, its implications too disruptive to actually absorb."

Two comically-absurd examples of a local ordnance are the obviously-copycats-of-each-other animated shorts "Pink Panzer" and "Suppressed Duck" --- in both films, absurdly-large/heavy firepower is employed merely to maintain/enforce a boundary-line.
