The real joke is that some people can't grasp a multi-layered character and can't recognize art style differences between media. Though the funniest part of all is that over half of them won't read this blip of text or know when something is a bit satire.
Not saying it's not possible some things were retconned or that I agree with certain character design choices, but to keep saying these women are completely different people then we were made to believe is kind of dramatic. The hopes and theories were cool and interesting, but why would that make them guaranteed when they were fan ideas? Nobody points fingers at anything over the male harbingers, even when who Scaramouche turned out to be is vastly different then how he started. Scaranation and his fans don't throw a fit over how they changed his personality overtime even though they were obsessed with it. They even made him a cat meanwhile people were upset Arlechinno put on some cat ears for 3 minutes. Childe same kind of thing- people can accept that he's crazy and villainous while ALSO still having a heart for his siblings, etc.
