I think Cline knows about some of this stuff, but because of the sheer volume of references, quite a bit is clearly from Wikipedia (or occasionally wrong).

So far that stuff was a one sentence aside while the narrator just info dumps at the start, it's not the focus of the plot at all.

Right now our heroes are going through the Prince Planet so they can collect Prince iconography and have a battle of the bands with multiple iterations of Price, which is a sentence I actually typed

I was saddened that it wasn't The Little Prince, but then happy he escaped this trash fire.
