Even when we go get this done, there's still the problem with the tiering. Currently the highest-tiered WB profile are the Animaniacs at Low 1-C (5D space), but people should realize that... We based our tiering system on a concept invented in 1971 (M-Theory, or Superstring Theory), a bit after the window for classic Looney Tunes shorts ended. I don't think it would make sense to apply any of the classic shorts to that rating since the guys behind those cartoons very likely only thought that there are three dimensions. Just a thought.

Bugs pulls off the same trick in a Looney Tunes Cartoons (2020) short. In the very same episode, it shows continuity to the theatrical shorts.

Hmm... looks like there's one added layer here as opposed to it just being the same drawing board trick from Duck Amuck. Basically a drawing board over a drawing board, vs just a single drawing board.
I do find it weird how Bugs figured out how to layer drawing boards onto one another when he was, in the classic shorts, actually defeated by Elmer using the drawing board himself. I'll just mark it off as "guess he just learned." Hardly anything's consistent in the toons besides the characters' intelligence.

By the way, Duck Amuck is actually canon to Animaniacs as well.
Also in Rabbit Rampage, the short you're referring to, it was less so that he was in Daffy's exact situation where he was completely hopeless against the animator, Bugs knows who it is, and just doesn't want to lose his job, willing to compromise if it meant making the cartoon work. He's even able to grab and break the paintbrush, and ends up shutting off the cartoon on his own terms. While Daffy is desperate, dealing with a god beyond his control, Bugs is tired having to deal with the nonsense of a coworker.
