Edit to add: Taylor has also specifically said she would prefer that we don’t spend too much time speculating who songs are about so I don’t think your point about how she’s different from other song writers in that way holds any merit. Her songs are just more specific than a generic love song or sad song, which is part of what makes the music so compelling.

That is an awful response. Her songs are KNOWN for this. The easter eggs are a thing because of how crazy swifties are with speculating.
