Exactly.

@Meanlucario  
That’s something alot of people don’t realize, every time they compare the two characters, but it feels like they only give Cozy a free pass, because she’s a child.  
^{(I think she’s secretly a midget.)}
 
I mean, I admit I used to be kinda part of that crowd whom hated Starlight for being a “karmiac houdini,” but I got over it. (And I feel Starlight’s done enough to redeem herself. Though, ironically, all the good she did just convinced fans she’s a “Mary-Sue,” and such, so she can’t win either way.)
 
As for Cozy, I understand not every villain can be redeemed. (Heck, ironically Starlight is hated for being reformed, while people howl for worse villains to get redeemed instead.)
 
Not to mention, Cozy did imprison Starlight for who knows how long, (so in a way Starlight got punishment after all) and trying to get rid of all the magic in Equestria coud’ve been just as devistating as Starlight’s time-travel fiasco. (But as I said, Starlight only wanted revenge on Twilight, and didn’t understand the damage she caused, while Cozy did it for her own gain. So the characters’ motives are quite different.)

@Beau Skunky  
Yeah, Cozy knew what she was doing, and only regretted getting caught. Starlight didn’t realized what her revenge was doing to the world outside of the main six, and had to reject her own ideals to admit that what she was doing wasn’t what she wanted.

^{Not this crap again…}
 
In fairness, that wasn’t Glimmer’s intention, and she willingly surrendered to Twilight afterwards, (and in the end, her damage was undone by the time travel) while that “poor, innocent, power-crazed filly” didn’t.  
…And I’m saying this as somebody whom likes Cozy, and accepts she’s a villain, not just another “watered down sympathetic anti-villain.”

her face need to become a meme!

I like that face, even though I don’t really read the fan comic series it comes from.
