That doesn't require him to be flawless, it requires him to grow beyond those flaws & the flaws of the world around him.
A person who overcomes & prevales against horrific odds some of his own nature & accomplishes great things is inherently more inspiring then a mary sue the writers will not allow under any circumstances to look flawed or make mistakes.
>and it comes from his upbringingAnd it's a perfectly fucking valid take to show him developing from a well meaning but rightly deeply concerned family rather then blindly niaeve idiots that didn't prepare him for the world.
It's no more invalid a take then Ra's Al Ghul not having Lazarus pits in Nolan's films or the Joker killing Bruce's parents in Burtons.
>What I mean is that unless we are specifically dealing with an elseworld storyAll movies are elseworlds.
>whose psyche depends entirely on muh LoisHe didn't surrender to Zod because of Lois, he didn't risk his life with the world engine & he didn't take a nuke to the face for Lois, he did it because it was the right thing to do.
>What I mean is that Snyder is a hack who never understood the character in the first place.You can understand the character perfectly fine & still want to do a experimental take on him.
