I gotta respectfully disagree with your first sentence. There was only one time during the show's run where Buffy needed to be called out on her behavior and actions and that was in When She Was Bad. Every other episode and season was about her friends - particularly Xander - slapping Buffy down for being human and reacting to traumatic events in her life as a human being and NOT a superhero.

And, for example, the one time she tried to act as a hero rather than a human being - when she felt she had to slay Anya for killing those frat boys - Xander was there again to tell her how wrong she was, even though she was finally doing what he had badgered, snarked and bullied her about in s2.

The infuriating thing was, the tone of the show was that he was right.

I completely agree (and OOOOHHHHH Xander irritates me).

The thing was, Buffy was just doing what they'd been pushing her to do all along. Everyone acted like being a Slayer meant being a master of military tactics, but that's not the case. Buffy's smart, sure, and she's a quick thinker, but slayers were created to fight alone, not lead armies. Yet suddenly everyone, Giles included, is pushing her to become the general of the army and lead, and when she does, and something goes wrong, then they turn on her. Yeah. I just. Not a fan of that.
