I think a big issue with these things is people don't really understand how classpects tie into the story at a base level, so they see the way the narrative treats Page's and Witches and such and go 'wow I can't believe hussie hates these characters' like it's both a joke and a narrative point that all of Tavros' development happens off screen because he's a page. Is that necessarily good writing? That's for you to decide, but it's not some like. secret hatred he has of the characters.
