What's the point with that quite lackluster story in Endwalker?

If you don't like exposition, I think you're playing the wrong game.

Ordinarily I would side on the "enough with the alphirants" side of the debate, but if they're going to rake everyone else through the coals with long-winded speeches, she may as well get one too, especially when her own actions are at the root of all this, and for once I might even agree with the brat.

He's not wrong and the Scions never once bring up this same point to Hydaelyn. The irony is that it's the sundering that has resulted in all of mankind's woes, not the Final Days. Those were averted by Zodiark. Everything that's happened since falls squarely on Venat's shoulders. She is, in my mind, the main antagonist of the series, bane to both unsundered and sundered, who despite being gifted with omniscience by the WoL uses it not for the betterment of anyone, but to the detriment of all.

Agreed.
