You raise the best possible counterpoint to Evanier's contention, especially if, ironically, the team is strong enough to tolerant different opinions. However, there has to be a give and take, and it depends on how sophisticated the writers are. (The latter probably matters most of all.)
And you also raise another good point in how certain people or personalities just become obnoxious or too aggressive or off-putting or outright moody. (I have to watch more of 80's Grumpy Bear, before I can give a better analysis. He certainly would be the poster child of this, yet you could always count on him in the end.)
It's the eternal debate with the human condition, as both sides have their strengths and weaknesses (Evanier articulated well for his side, you with yours). We'll be debating it for the rest of our existence, but it makes for fun philosophical debate. Of course, such thoughts are easy to wax and hard to practice, especially when you have to crank out a weekly animated series.
Either way, I'll debate the matter, though, it will have to be for another day. Hopefully, I made at least some sense on this comment. (One can hope. Heh.)
