Imagine how different everything could have gone if Lightning Dust actually apologized at the Wonderbolt Academy incident, after realizing what she inadvertantly caused.
That would have set her worlds ahead from where she is now, at least.

What a surprise. If could get a coin each time I see that.

Iβd be lying if I say I never expected this to happen tho, but if I could profit from it then itβll be much better for me. I for one believe that ideally itβs better to watch the original product first and then go for the fanworks.

If I had to guess to something I would have wanted seen different, I would wager Lightning Dust could have used a full reformation, but Iβm not upset with what we got with her, at least.
Lightning Dust certainly wasnβt any more evil than the villains who got reformed. She was reckless and self-centered, but Spitfire had freely condoned her behavior - including the tornado - until Rainbow Dash pointed out that said tornado had endangered ponies who entered Wonderbolt airspace without authorization in the middle of a training exercise.
And then in βThe Washoutsβ, for the first and only time in all of canon, we see Scootaloo accepting her limitations and finding a career which would perfectly match her talents and passionsβ¦ only to get the message that this was a BAD thing. Reforming Lightning Dust there would have produced a lovely lesson in finding something noteworthy to do with oneβs life in spite of a disability.

With Tirek, Chrysalis and Cozy Glow, Iβm not sure they deserve redemption. But at the same time, the writers shouldnβt have given us Frenemies, then turned around and given us redemption blueballs. On the flipsideβ¦

What Iβve noticed is that some people donβt really engage with the story. They just sort of project their own wishes onto the story, and then feel betrayed when the story doesnβt reciprocate.

I think many people struggle accepting fiction usually uses the concepts of protagonist and antagonist as representations and not actual physical objects or entities, ergo they struggle liking a hero for being a hero and a villain for being a villain.
A subtle way to not being able to distinguish reality from fiction, some redemptions might be enjoyable or not, some just remain evil, but it does look more like they want to make an all or nothing affair.

Luna, Stygian, and Tempest, for instance, were all drawn in by dark power, but they themselves never started out as bad guys and just needed the light shone on them again, so to speak.
Same with Starlight Glimmer, just without the βdark powerβ part. Just her insane personality that needed sorting out.

As for those like Storm King, Tirek, and Chrysalis, they didnβt like, have anything happen to them that needed working out, they were just card carrying bad guys and loving it.

Well the villains who werenβt entirely evil or felt conflicted, they just needed some remolding, they were spared.
But the ones who were completely unrepentant and didnβt show a shred of remorse, those were the ones who were defeated. Or worse.
This more or less lines up with my feelings. Even with Cozy. Despite being a literal kid. She was not remorseful or misguided or what have you.

It might be fun to make a chart out of it. One axis shows whether or not they were redeemed/reformed, and the other is a sliding scale of how much they actually deserved redemption.

Iβd make it a blank chart, and let people fill it in themselves.

One thing that irks me about the MLP fandom is how they complain about there being βtoo many reformationsβ, but when the series gives them a villain that doesnβt reform (Cozy Glow, for example), theyβre all like βNo! Why couldnβt they have reformed them?!β I know these arenβt necessarily the same people doing the complaining, but still.
