Yes, I have read Aristotle’s Poetics.? (Several translations to get a full range of the meaning of his words).? It’s a timeless classic, a must-read for anyone who wants to become a screenwriter or dramatist. The book deeply informs my m.o. for reviewing loglines, particularly his points about the unity of plot and the necessity of plausible causality between the inciting incident and action.
[My other pre-20th/21st century text on drama is Hegel’s theory of tragedy, the most original contribution to dramatic theory since Ari.? And, alas, underappreciated.]

Richiev, as usual, cuts to the chase. However, if the color of the child's hair matters to the plot, if it is a triggering element in the inciting incident (for some irrational reason, it provokes the antagonist), then perhaps it needs to be an element of the logline.
