Oh man. My theory is that Vimes was always the Vimes he ended up being but the impotence of his situation put him in the bottle. He doesn't really fundamentally change in DW, he just gets the ability to do the things he views as important.

In that light, Carrot and actually Angua as well were both a necessary injection of competence into the AMCW. I think they were the strong foundation that Vimes used to put together the Watch as it became. Without them Vimes would never have been able to turn it around.

Sybil was the unexpected element that gave him a life outside the Watch. Without her I could imagine Vimes building the Watch he did but eventually getting lost back in drink because he would have no life over dealing with the essential shittiness of people. Sybil and Sam Jr give him hope, though half the time I think he doesn't really know what to do with that.

So both equally important imo.

Also, gaining the attention / notice of Vetinari probably helped a good bit.

AYRT Good point. Vetinari is definitely a key third ingredient.
