This focus on cross-linguistic variation is essential for formulating and testing linguistic theories: A theory of grammar should be a theory of all possible human grammars.

The study of mass-media-distributed pop-cultural artifacts - such as songs, films, television series, comics, video games, and so on - is becoming increasingly widespread in academia due to their enormous reach and the fact that they constitute a significant portion of contemporary everyday communication (with potentially significant social influence).
