>>30971165a character, however defined, can be turned into whatever. Look at king arthur, he was pretty well defined, originally as the king who resisted the romans and then became a christian king who seeked the holy grail.
No one talks about the Red Knight, in comparison. His entire character was "he was a bitter man who did things"
The more depth a character has, good or bad, the more that can be done with them.
A character that is one note doesn't have much you can do with them.
A well-defined character can be put into any situation and they can expand or detract based on it.
In short, you are full of shit and its likely you've never even taken a literary class or played Sumo
