Allusions have a varying degree of strength and if someone doesn't see it, such is life. Allusions are not opinions! If you take a literature class you'll know that allusions, metaphors and other literary devices are hardly based on opinion. You either notice or you don't. You can't say something isn't a metaphor in literature because you don't see it that way, the same is with allusions.

Cyrus greatly alludes to the Aladdin story the most, besides the Sultan and Jafar. All others are a tad weaker. If it's not a matter of opinion, then majority shouldn't rule.

People here say that Cyrus is an allusion to Aladdin but nobody states why. I said it in the very first post of this thread.
