Multi-faceted close reasons are fine, especially when we only get a few, so long as there's a unifying theme. A question doesn't have to be asking about plot and characters to be closed as story-based.

Character-based when groups of characters can be ok and significant world-affecting characters can be ok gets confusing. Let's move it up a level.
