It's not necessary for people to compare Glimmer and Shimmer, +__the problem is its too easy to do so.+

__
 
Sunset was created first, Starlight was created after. Both have expy names from Twilight Sparkle, one has a parallel name, one has a copy name. One is a fan favorite, and one is to a far lesser extent. One has origins linked to Celestia, one has no origins linking to anyone or anything prior to her introduction. The latter has a defensive side of the fandom, the former doesnt have one anymore because she doesn't need one.


 
Everyone is going to have and state their personal and completely subjective preference, but at the end of the day, **it's a recipe for disaster and everyone knows it.** People who dislike Starlight are never going to stop disliking Starlight until she is better written in their eyes. That is the bottom line and nothing beyond that resolution will ever, EVER change that.


 
If we accept those facts, both sides can at least try to not start more fires.
