If the appearance of a character is enough to create a contradiction big enough, there will be necessity for the new page. Which is a big "if" and left open to interpretation. How much of a contradiction does there need to be for us to say there are two different characters? If one gets an individual page, shouldn't the rest? How does that affect the information we've put on the pages for characters from the main series? All this and more, every time.

We are putting way too much effort into trying to figure out how to rectify two continuity errors. You are willing to put in that effort, you've made that abundantly clear, but you are hugely underestimating how much work that actually is.

As for disambiguation, you have to figure out how to get those pages to recognize the pages for each video game, novel, and comic tie-in. If you don't want to do that, when we don't cover everything. And then there's still the issue of categories and putting the character template in the media templates multiple times.
