"...Characters rarely have to make difficult choices or deal with the repercussions of said choices: they seldom if ever make mistakes that lead to hurting themselves or others, and nobody is ever called out, hurt by, or otherwise inconvenienced by their own flaws. Though authors often give protagonists a “token flaw”, it is always glossed over and/or thought of as cute or quirky instead of a legitimate shortcoming."
