Alexandria Effect

The Alexandria Effect, or Alexandrian Effect, is a form of Knowledge Destruction, when someone or something intentionally causes information to accidentally get lost, on purpose.

It originates from the burning down of the library of Alexandria, to disperse information and culture in a way to prevent people from being able to correlate and understand factual truth, or history.

Gaster Effect

The Gaster Effect (Undertale term) is when a person mistakenly links anything slightly mysterious, or anything slightly resembling Gaster (leitmotifs, font or face) relating to Undertale or Deltarune, to the character W.D. Gaster, even if it is very hard. This is usually because Gaster is very mysterious and of a certain significance to said games' lore. In most cases, relating things to Gaster is not appropriate for the situation and/or possibly misleading.

B: Those are just arpeggios. You've got the Gaster Effect
