Stuff that’s not really part of the mainstream popular culture is more spoilable. Cowboy Bebop came out before The Sixth Sense, but I’d still assume open spoilers for The Sixth Sense wouldn’t be as bad as ones for Cowboy Bebop on an English-language forum.
Assuming the general social norms for spoilers thing for “spoilability”, not whether it actually ruins entertainment for those who don’t know the story yet or not.

I don’t think that’s true either. The people in the study were specifically screened to not have heard of the stories used.
