And that there's been a few who held that disdain and mistrust of her from the start. There wasn't many but it was there. Same for the liking of the Ascians even when it was mostly Lahabreha teaching Nero how to spy on one's enemies and sending his black masked cronies after us. Heck people some of that group that liked Nabriales kidnapping Minfillia just cause they hoped he'd kill her cause they hated her so much.

Again I don't think even if we somehow did all of 6.0 until now without any of the major Scions as not part of the story that a good number of those who have this fatigue would have been satisfied with it. As you can't quantify the correct amount of time for some of this group. Unless it was something as long as say Meffrid's absence. Of course who would have known back in base ARR that he'd pop back up during Stormblood. Then again for some they just hate the Scions so much that even that long of a break wouldn't count. I know I shouldn't double down on strawmen, but look at Lyse we didn't have her for most of ShB even in the post patch yet most people who currently have this problem wouldn't count that as enough time. People even would rather exaggerate Y'shtola missing out on a good portion of Stormblood as not even being as long as it was and thus we should dismiss it. Now I'm not sure if you're aware or want to admit that part of the whole ugh why do we still have them group isn't even fatigue related. It's someone's extreme disdain for those characters disguised as fatigue. I'm not saying it's a huge swath of the fatigue crowd, but they are definitely part of that crowd.

An aside note grats Cleretic on being asked to appear on SotR.
