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

Honestly, you can't logically dismiss the complaints as baseless "bashing" when practically all of the post-EW interviews were having to explain things that should've been obvious within the story itself.

Yoshi P having to come out and say "No really, Venat/Hydaelyn is a good person" is particularly telling since that would suggest there was evidently enough people who thought otherwise to get his attention.

This is what I find most odd in Endwalker they really didn't seem to actually be telling the story they intended to.
