There's nothing 'edgy' about expecting Venat to be held accountable for acts of deliberate genocide instead of having it be praised as a 'grim necessity' despite it turning out that the Sundered only exist precisely because the Ancients were unceremoniously subject to genocide and racial replacement in what has to be one of the most convoluted threads of reasoning in a story to date.

The protagonists of the game would never accept Venat's logic being applied to their loved ones, thus there's no reason for anybody else to do so either.

Most of the complaint's regarding Endwalker's story are deceptively framed as something completely different to what is actually being stated.

It's particularly unfortunate because it's very easy to go back through the years and see that quite a lot of the more vocal complaints about Endwalker's narrative and lack of consistency comes from people who not only cared deeply about the story and characters but repeatedly provided sources for what they were discussing and often pointing out how often the game stated one thing in a particular quest only to throw it aside elsewhere the moment that it became inconvenient to hold the protagonists to the same standards as the opposition.
