but were there no aspiring dentists freaking out? I seem to recall Handler makes a joke in TEE about Sunny making a noise that would make any dentist wince when she sticks her teeth into the elevator shaft and uses them to climb up. I think a lot of the Sunny's-teeth-save-the-day incidents require a bit of suspension of disbelief, so it's a situation where one can safely ignore any potential realistic consequences and assume that Sunny's teeth are perfectly fine afterwards.

I'd forgotten about that joke'--thanks!!! Oh, I know you have to suspend disbelief with Sunny; it's just funny that Klaus was the source of so much concern, but no one had "danger" theories about the girl who's been in the most dangerous situations.

Now, you know, thinking way back, there might have been theories Sunny would die, you know. I just can't remember the details, but it might have involved a speculative Medusoid Mycelium relapse, which ultimately wasn't that far off the mark, I suppose. Now that I think about it, the idea that one of the Baudelaires might die in the finale wasn't unpopular, though there was also much against it. But of course, nobody really saw The End coming.

Dante, with all those interconnected-slash-interdependent theories, it almost seems like we're looking at some Grand Unified Theory of Snicketology. Comet, please write a fanfic of this. Not only was reading your idea fun, but I love the idea of a Violet who, because I don't think she'd make Fernald's wrong turning, received more flexible appendages than hooks, and so could still invent after learning to adapt to her disability. I'm more interested in the aftermath than the gore. Haha, maybe I should! I could probably make a series of short ASOUE fanfics that aren't quite impossible - I remember doing a similar joke a while back about the henchperson of indeterminate gender's tragic backstory, and that other currently active discussion about the white-faced women and their potential connection to Zada and Zora from ATWQ could also be good material to go on. In fact, I'd love to write Snicket fanfiction, but that whole world is kinda holy to me, so I don't really want to change or add anything to it out of fear that I could only make it worse.

Oh no no no, don't think of it like that. If you're writing backstories, you're leaving the series in tact, and AU's are meant to diverge, so they're held separate from the source material by writers and readers alike. You're not adding or changing anything, you're filling in the gaps.
