But hopefully it would be good for something other than showing us how perfect the MC is. At the end of the day T'Challa is human and good and Killmonger would still kill anyone on a whim.

It's also good for closure, and to bring things full circle. T'Chaka made a serious error in judgment all those years ago because he didn't anticipate the outcome. T'Challa and Wakanda had to pay for this mistake, and learning about what his father had unknowingly done was a very human moment of growth for him. He learned that the father he loved and respected was not infallible, something most people can relate to. Acknowledging and making peace with that is character growth. Acknowledging it to the person who was wronged is closure.

It isn't about showing the MC to be perfect, it's far more complicated and nuanced than that. It's about T'Challa's development as a character and about the narrative. Yes, he's still the good guy, Killmonger's still the bad guy. This is not about altering those roles.
