Pretty much yeah. It always befuddles me when people start interpreting characters' behavior from a generic one-size-fits-all Normal Life perspective, without taking into account the (usually extremely out of the ordinary) fictional circumstances that the behavior takes place in.

I feel this way about people acting as if CAPSLOCK!Harry from Order of the Phoenix was just "being 15" instead of "being 15 after going through a hugely traumatizing event and being tortured and now being mocked and harassed by the government and press and all your schoolmates and being bullied by your professor and being constantly terrified to death that wizard Hitler is going to start taking over the world any minute while the Prime Minister refuses to believe he's alive and also having disturbing nightmares and magic headaches from your psychic link to wizard Hitler."

Yeah, people think if you judge fictional characters differently based on their situations it's the same thing as excusing jerks IRL which...not always, guys. Not all of us are obligated to treat the characters like we would real people.
