I suppose you all know what Scrödinger's cat is. We close a cat in a box with a poison. Until we open the box to see, if the cat is alive or dead, it's in a state of both. However classically we think that it's either dead or not, but certainly not both.

Literature works in a similar way. The writer hides the cat. Then the writer tells the audience about the cat, the poison, the cat's lovelife and political ambitions, then the writer shows if the cat's alive or dead. There's a reveal and the story ends.

There are some variations to this. One thing is common: the cat is dead or alive. The story has to conclude. It causes immense aggression when a setup has no payoff and the writer's blamed with incompetence or laziness.
