    People keep expecting Hydaelyn to follow the "benevolent diety/god was hiding something bad all along" trope when there still hasn't been any set-up for it.

    We also don't know the mechanics of how a Calamity actually works. So there's much speculation about what is really happening in a Calamity and how it is really happening. And inevitably people wonder if that might be the thing Hydaleyn is hiding the makes her out to be not so great.

    To be fair, SE loves that trope. The church/god almost always ends up being, if not actively evil, at least not as benevolent as it appears (we already saw it play out that way in Ishgard.)

    While I agree that that's probably not the direction the story is heading in this case, I also wouldn't be surprised if it ended up being true.
