Actually, we do specifically allow "compare and contrast" behind spoiler tags as long the label of the tag clearly identifies what is being compared (and the comparisons are "useful or informative"; I'm sure you can imagine the alternatives... ). I personally think these sorts of comparisons can be very valuable, so I'm all for it. This is one of those remaining cases where the label is still extremely critical (since you're right of course that one of the main reasons we went to this policy is due to people's chronic inability to label their spoilers properly).
