I agree that it may hurt popularity, but I disagree that it is worse. Maybe there could be better single-serving-punchlines than this particular arc punchline, but good punchlines of any sort are rather rare on PVP, and at least the writing of this arc, and this joke, indicate a coherent grasp of storytelling.Actually, my contention is that it is a worse joke and therefore hurts popularity. Popularity is an affected variable rather than the defining characteristic.
