Discord saying he doesn't turn ponies to stone was arguably hypocritical from the get-go, in that it was based on statues, just like dead ponies, being not fun/chaotic, not actual morals. He was pissed over it happening to _*him_*, not _*others_*, and he didn't seem bitter anymore that it happened in The Summer Sun Setback, the way he jovially mentioned it.


 
...Fluttershy should've been _*forced_* to admit in Daring Doubt that her approach doesn't _*always_* work, even if it sometimes does, because the latter part with Ahuizotl involved an outright _*retcon_* (Daring Done? being a mentioned example of him doing things in places where he didn't apparently guard) so she'd look the best.

(Regarding "retcon")


 
It would've felt more congruent, really, if the lesson was instead "sometimes kindness pays off, sometimes not."


 
...it's kind of the same problem "Bats!" had really, going along with her self-righteousness without question, because they gave Fluttershy the most flattering portrayal too much.
