Sounds exactly like weaponized incompetence.

Maybe we need to revisit what that term means then. There's a difference between weaponizing incompetence and communicating limitations. Also, again, it's a comedy show, so it's not perfect. Total abject obedience is also unhealthy in a relationship, but you glossed over that part.

My general approach is that if I'm unwilling or unable to ask for something, I can't justifiably be mad when I don't get it. If you're truly expecting people to know exactly what you want without telling them, you're setting them and yourself up for failure and disappointment.
