    I see people make comments like this about shows, movies, etc. and I’ve never understood this line of thinking. I generally expect things to work the same as they do in real life unless it’s explicitly explained otherwise. Not sure if I’m the odd man out in thinking that way or what.

      No, you’re right IMO. Just because something is different from our world doesn’t mean all logical consistency is off the table. This idea is called versimilitude.
