The real world also does NOT have mermaids, immortal pirates, or magical red queens. You can't apply real world logic to this show. If we are going by your logic, Spike Witwicky, April O'Neil, Eliza Maza, Lucy Pevensie, Harry Potter and Sunset Shimmer would all be in mental institutions.

Fidelity to the source material is far more important than "real world logic". The One True Alice was NEVER committed to a mental institution, she thought it was all a dream, had a daughter and lived happily ever after. That's all in the book, which is the ultimate authority on who is or isn't Alice, not "real world logic".

READ THE BOOK. I'm very confused with what you got from Edwards post. I actually agree with him. If someone started saying those things in the 1800s, then they very well would be put into an asylum.
