Chidi Anagonye Syndrome 

Analysis paralysis (or paralysis by analysis) describes an individual or group process when overanalyzing or overthinking a situation can cause forward motion or decision-making to become "paralyzed", meaning that no solution or course of action is decided upon.

Chidi of The Good Place is the ultimate example of Analysis Paralysis and it has now been renamed in the DSM-21(not really) to reflect this.

Anagonye's Tomato Problem

A 2019 thought experiment which points to the fallacies that unintended and unpreventable consequences bring into a system which evaluates virtue through traditional Benthemian Consequentialism.
It says much about literary critics' increasing ignorance of their own field that they can ignore Anagonye's Tomato Problem, which concerns the true nature and intentions of man, simply because it was invented by a television sitcom and not a philosophy textbook.
