Yeah, I feel like Bird is someone who was struggling with the limits of his own very narrow ideology a lot and was more into it as a sort of “anti-status quo-ism” rather than being the most hardcore Objectivist around. I don’t really know though, and I’m psychoanalysing a guy I don’t really know way too much.
It could be an examination of a sort of “you either have it or you don’t” sort of thing, where Syndrome has skills and talents but isn’t “super” and therefore should “stay in his lane” and not try to take over their role. But again, I’m really not sure. It does clearly treat this guy with super-human levels of engineering skills as not having a “super” power and therefore it is “wrong” for him to try and be a superhero.
