These stories are not meant to be realistic, they’re not meant to be so in depth… there’s always going to be issues…
To me all that sounds like we shouldn’t have heroes. Because they could all be doing other, more “efficient” jobs. Except maybe for captain planet…altho I’m sure we can find improvements for that one as well.
And yes, successful villains all end up either people that want to destroy everything or people that want to make things better but doing it wrong. Anything less than that and they’re not important enough.
All these issues are usually features, not bugs, I think.
I’m not at all clear where you got that from what I was saying, which was not that we shouldn’t have heroes, but we can have better heroes, ones whose flaws are acknowledged by the narrative.
