With that in mind, I just saw something that every single comment I've heard about it was glowing, and I was left cynically feeling that the part I cared most about was a lie

Which speaks to the artifice of writing in the first place, if a writer can make you care, is that all that matters? Because nothing you just read or saw was real.

There's ultimately nothing wrong with this trope despite it being masturbatory, & it can actually be very well written Unfortunately, unless you make a cinematic or literary magic trick, your audience can very quickly realize that thing they cared about doesn't actually matter because it wasn't real

It is one of those tropes like "it was all a dream" that can make you suddenly stop caring about what you have just watched or read. The writer as the center of the universe one is the most masturbatory because it elevates the writer to being the universe & when they die the universe dies with them
