Same result in the end, IMHO, as it leads to reinterpretations based on the love of the character.

I think Alan Moore said it best: https://screenrant.com/alan-moore-on-rorschach-fans-watchmen/

It's an interesting point that would be nice to see addressed more in anti-superhero fiction, like The Boys. They addressed this problem to some extent with the Rorschach depiction in the Watchmen TV series.

Feels like Rick and Morty has had the same issue with people idolizing Rick. They have addressed it to some degree by showing how Rick's bad qualities also make him miserable etc.
