Or maybe they all have it, but some put on a performance of not having it. That's my point.

Gaston from Beauty and the Beast, for instance, is a "realistic" character who is depicted as dying from a fall. Yet he appears in subsequent cartoons, alive. Maybe he just acted the part of being dead in the movie.

In fact, I'm not sure any of the classic Disney toons had it, though the Warner Brothers ones certainly did.
Lots of Disney characters appeared in Who Framed Roger Rabbit, where they were just as toony as the Warner Brothers' toons. Snow White and the Evil Queen appear in Toon Town.
