Background Pony #6201

And in what way is a school supposed to constitute as any sort of help or rehabilitation? By that logic I could just as easily say that Starlight chose to try and attack three of her villagers after lying to them for who knows how long and after they, rightfully, rebelled against her or how she learned nothing from spying on Twilight other then planning out how to get revenge against her or I could bring up that Discord kept relapsing after he was given a second chance and all that help from Fluttershy.
And no, Cozy did not deliberately try to murder her entire species. How do you rule over a bunch of corpses? Discord brought in an era of chaos where no pony could ever live comfortably because any random dangerous magical thing could happen to them and tried to do the same thing again while Starlight almost ruined the entire timeline any, if we believe in multiple timelines existing simultaniously being a thing, she may have actually succeeded.
As for motives, I find the fact that Discord tormented ponies to the point where he was remembered as having a heart as cold as stone just for personal enjoyment to be a lot worse then actually having a purpose to it. As for Starlight, she manipulated, lied to and tried to hurt her villagers and later took it out on Twilight when they rightfully rebelled against her and all that because a friend of hers moved away when she was a filly.
If those two deserved a second chance (multiple in Discord’s case), then Cozy did as well.
