Wheeler isn't an incompetent Miles Gloriosus type who makes others look better, nor is he ridiculous or outright goofy, he is serious most of the time. He is very capable, smart, and his 'paranoia' is proven correct. He is courageous and the most prepared and competent of the supporting characters. Doesn't fit the trope well. He's already in the YMMV section for Base Breaking Character, no sense bringing that here.
