You're arguing in bad faith/are missing the point.

The OP said JC is a poor downtrodden unwanted child who is overshadowed by his golden child step brother and ... I mean, that's just factually wrong. A golden child would not be viciously abused by their stepmother. And I never said WWX suffered MORE, the OP kept repeating how much more JC suffered than WWX and how much harder he had it when that wasn't exactly the case - and a lot of the reasons JC succeeded in the end HAD to do with WWX's sacrifices. That's not putting JC down, that's just putting things in perspective.

The OP did not "keep repeating it". The secret says two things about WWX: that OP finds him less interesting post-death, and yes, the single golden child comment--which I agree is inaccurate phrasing. That whole family was a shitshow of bad dynamics and WWX absolutely got the worst of it, but it's not like JC was /favored/ by comparison. Part of the scapegoat/golden-child dynamic is the pitting against each other, always being compared to each other; Madam Yu expressing notions like "how come that piece of shit is doing better than YOU", for a rough example, is not favoring JC even if it's not actively (physically) abusing him like she did WWX. And then there's JFM's version of "favoring", which was of course not abusive but still damaging.

In the greater scale, outside of bad family dynamics, WWX was pretty commonly seen as better than JC at everything, which I /suspect/ is what OP was attempting to get at.

The WWX and JC dynamic and all of the ways it's desperately broken fascinates me, and just cannot possibly be broken down into "only one can TRULY suffer here"

OP was the only one to say one was preferred over the other and I never once said that only one of them did truly suffer. I mean, you keep making up arguments I never made.
