Slice-of-life heroes are acceptable, it's like tabloids, it's not hard hitting news but it is still protected under the same umbrella. Many soap-operas and plays are entirely character focused, Ebenezer Scrooge for example is just some guy learning there is more to life than his job. Kevin Arnold, Doug Funny and Daria Morgendorfer are just some kids that go through Elementary to High-school. The world may not be in danger but they are still the respective protagonists of their tales. We have categories for Horror, Romance, SciFi and Commercials to to create a line at something as well traveled as Slice-of-Life seems counter-productive, though I do understand your concern. The generally rule of thumb to keep things from devolving is that if the writers can't figured out more to write about the character to give them a proper sized article it is put up for deletion. It really all depends on the amount of information that can be given.
