It's alright, I ain't even mad.
The thing with Fluttershy is that people generally have this assumption that she is a lone lily surrounded by venus flytraps. She's simply a timid and docile girl, no more or less good, noble, or compassionate than the others, but people tend to repurpose the 'timid and docile' stuff and turn them into a focusing lens for her positive traits, often expanding them to ridiculous proportions, sometimes to the point that they completely override her general character with something else entirely.
