On: I Am the Ghost Here

My point was that other interpretations result in an equally, if not more plausible story.

Additionally, I'd say that none of them result in a fully plausible story, and that the author wrote it like that intentionally.

And I vastly prefer it that way to a pure allegory, which to me too often seems like a dishonest way to make an argument.

The best allegories are the ones that go completely off the rails, and only make the author's original point if you squint. (Even better if they're still good allegories, but for things their authors didn't know about.)
