Chausson WASNT in the wrong, as far as the game is concerned. No one ever questions his assertion that Rock is a burden on society. No one questions that fighting is NECESSARY in order for Rock to stay. They just didn\'t want Rock to fight, but as I said, that\'s treated as a character quirk.

That puts pressure on Team Elma to save her, and they offer to fight for Rock, too. At no point is \\\"Rock not wanting to fight is a burden on society\\\" questioned by the characters or the narrative. They ACCEPT that it\\\'s a burden.
That\\\'s what makes Chausson right. He may not have been nice about it at first, but he ultimately gets what he wanted: Celica is fighting instead of Rock, and Rock is pressed into work. That\\\'s what makes this an example of collectivism: the end result is that Rock is told to work or get out but the story presents it as a HAPPIER alternative than forcing him to fight. It ignores the fact that his pacifism is STILL forcing Celica to do it on his behalf.
Vandham was kidding about HOW she\\\'d join BLADE--not about her joining it. But again, that isn\\\'t the point. The mission has her do that just to demonstrate how far she\\\'s wiling to go to overcome Rock\\\'s burden.
