Oh, and about the pinch hit thing, I don't see the issue with the ToT 1st century BCE person mentioning it was a pinch hit. "I've done six pinch hits in the last month" only seems a bit weird to me because why does someone reading that specific fic need to know that? (And is there another fic in the collection that says "this is the fifth pinch hit I've written in the last month? Because if so, lol.)
I don't really care because I rarely put my prompts on pinch hitters' prompts lists but I feel like I haven't seen any whining about recognition for them. So I guess personally I don't think either an earlier post for them OR saying "I wrote this as a pinch hit" is gauche.
