My worst fear for TWP is that Cassandra Clare decides to pull an Achilles and Patroclus and kills Kit or Ty and completely destroys the other in the process

No no you don't understand. It's not about Jason being always right or the person who suffered the most. It's that he's a victim's power fantasy. It's that he's fundamentally changed. The tragedy of Jason Todd is that he was the best goddamn kid - he was kind and thoughtful and smart and passionate and caring - and that that was taken advantage of, and that's what got him killed. It's that he can't ever be that kid again because his trauma is all consuming and yet he has used that to create a new identity where he is in control. That trauma defines him. It also leaves him frozen, incapable of true character development, makes it so he can never cross that gap between him and Bruce. He cannot separate being Bruce's son from being Robin, and therefore if he is not Robin, he is not Bruce's son. He cannot move on from being a victim, not ever, and therefore he is always going to be representative of victimhood being utilized for something else. When the anger consumes you and you mourn your past self because you can never be that person again. When it's the happy memories that hurt the most. That's where his narrative is the most powerful. It would be so satisfying on a certain level to see him grow past that. But he would no longer serve his purpose, not in challenging Bruce, and not in representing that need to empower yourself after the worst thing that ever happened to you.
