      Sure, Mr Dizzy should get off at the next station if he feels dizzy. But he'll feel dizzy on the platform too. He'll feel dizzy everywhere.

    He will always feel dizzy. He's Mr Dizzy. It's extreme nominative determinism.

      Similarly Little Miss Stubborn won't move down inside the carriage because she is, by definition, stubborn.

        Also, as @helensulis pointed out, 'stubborn' is a word, like 'bossy', disproportionately applied pejoratively to women and not to men.
