I see the similarities people are drawing between Aladdin/Sinbad and Scheherazade/Jasmine, but I don't see Aladdin and Jasmine fitting into the LoUS arc very well and also it seems weird that they would use relatively well-known existing characters as their red herring names. It would be one thing to lie about the exact role/relationship (like Merida and Jekyll/Hyde's casting calls) or even to use a name that most people wouldn't recognize (like Sir Morgan as Sir Lionel). But a lot of people know Sinbad and Scheherazade, so it seems like less of a red herring and more of a flat-out lie.

Plus, I really don't want to see Aladdin and Jasmine that badly, but Scheherazade sounds really cool.
