Yours is like First Installment Wins only applied to a very short window of time rather than a single installment. Project Horizons itself is quite literally the SECOND big installment of that kind of fic. So what you're getting at is that only fanfics and fan ideas conceived of within a certain timeframe that was very early on in the series' run got to be accepted as everyday concepts in the general lexicon of the fandom, with only very specific exceptions allowed after the show's first two seasons (such as Maud).
