Well, that's certainly true, but I don't think it really counts as a disagreement. Being closer to the fannish collective unconscious requires being closer to the more general one implicitly, doesn't it? And I definitely think the fannish collective unconscious is the centre. It's all members of fanon who are producing badfic, after all, even as they also have a multitude of other identities and affiliations as human beings which affect them.

But the main reason I made the 'fannish' distinction, really, was for singling out individual fandoms in contrast to wider Fandom or slash fandom as a whole. Badfic represents the wider fannish collective unconscious as a subset of the wider human one (and its proximity to the Id), but each piece of it also represents the smaller fandom it is a part of, and different fandoms have different characteristics, or at least different emphasis.
