Well...yeah? The "how" is the very essence of good writing. "Frodo walked to Mount Doom and destroyed the ring" is one way to write Lord of the Rings. But no one would call it good writing. The journey is just as important as the destination.

> I have yet to read any compelling argument or point of view why the last seasons were terrible.

Logic, timing, characterization, pacing, tone, faithfulness to the source material or to earlier seasons. Characters doing dumb shit just because the story needs to get to a certain place.

I didn't need to read anyone's arguments to know the last seasons were terrible. I have eyes and ears.
