You dislike Taylor "the entire Protectorate is bad and I'm gonna shack up with some villains because Armsmaster is a dick", Hebert, and Taylor "Nobody can help me not even my dad because the school didn't and I blame my dad for not helping me even though I didn't tell him" Hebert, continually blaming people for things they had no control over?
Get outta here!
The problem is that Taylor Hebert is supposed to be bookish and take after Annette, who was an English prof. She should have been better-read and know better than some of her canon fuckups as a result. For example, black and white worldview on heroes and villains at start of canon is IMPOSSIBLE for a serious reader.
Especially in the "heroes don't kill" department. It should be "heroes don't kill... as much as possible under the circumstances" (Source: MacLean's magazine survey on "As Canadian as..." ended up, claimed by a Quora user, being won by "...as possible under the circumstances". I'm only citing that because it sounds almost absurdly believable)
And then there's Danny Hebert. To keep a work gang like the DWU going in a shithole like Brockton Bay requires a critical mass able to meet surge requirements, and enough genius at interpersonal relations and contracts to maintain that critical mass is more than enough to steamroll Winslow post-Locker and not be the useless limp noodle we see in canon!
