According to a dictionary 'go down the rabbit hole' means,
"To enter into a situation or begin a process or journey that is particularly strange, problematic, difficult, complex, or chaotic, especially one that becomes increasingly so as it develops or unfolds"
Do we use 'down the rabbit hole' only to talk about problematic situations?
"Once I started to enjoy learning about Aristotle, I went down the rabbit hole of collecting every single book that has been written about him." (Don't know it makes sense. Made it up just like that.)
I know it's talking about a problematic situation (collecting every book about Aristotle), but as mentioned, this person enjoys learning about the philosopher.
