>"Roku had a wife, so it's all good!"Except she was never his earthly attachment. Roku saw her, thought she was hot, and by Aang's own description had basically no contact with her ("that girl who didn't know you existed!".
When Roku became Avatar and had to leave the Fire Nation, she was not a limitation on him at all. Roku tells Sozin that he's worried and nervous but he never says "oh and that chick I like, I'll miss her!" She's a non issue.
You equating her with Katara because "lol she's the Avatar's cumdump" is brainlet tier because it lacks an understanding of what an earthly attachment is and who Katara and Roku's wife were to Aang and Roku.
Katara was not some chick Aang saw, thought was cute, and then forgot about. She was his friend, teacher, and mommy surrogate. Roku doesn't consider being away from her to be an issue. For Aang, because away from Katara for, what, a fucking week to be with the Guru is a source of extreme anxiety. He starts having visions about her in danger almost immediately. Roku did not act that way at all.
If Roku had an earthly attachment, it was his friend, Sozin. Roku spent a lot of time with Sozin, regarded him highly as his prince and Fire Lord, and was genuinely sad at the prospect of being torn away from him (Sozin literally comforts him by giving him a royal artifact).
Sozin hinders Roku's ability to be a good Avatar because of the emotional significance he has. Sozin dreams up a war, and Roku just tells him to knock it off. Sozin starts colonising the Earth Kingdom and Roku just slaps him around a bit. Roku's inability to overcome his love for his friend for the sake of the world is far more comparable to Aang's feelings for Katara than his wife, who had literally zero impact on his Avatar career.
Kuruk had a wife, and along with Roku were the biggest fuckups till Korra. Kyoshi and Yangchen were unmarried and were better Avatars, so even with your argument you're wrong.
