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

[Lauront]

Think the argument of fair goes out the window when she refused to be fair and tell her people what was going on but to each their own. I simply point out the hypocrisy of her actions and the heavy bias that revolves around her.

Well one of the biggest issues is the time loop, and how they made use of it, which ties directly to Elpis and her decisions. It's difficult to ignore her role in events when she's central to them, but at the same time, you have other issues, like how dynamis and Meteion were introduced, which felt rushed.
