    Gandalf went on to deal out a shitload of death and judgement, all of which was entirely necessary to reach his goal.

    Looks to me like you haven’t moved yet to non-fiction.

            I did, and learned that Gandalf definitively is a fictional character so someone using him to explain non-fictional world doesn’t appear particularly bright.

              Using fiction to explain reality is a fairly common educational technique, you’re obviously unfamiliar with it because you are completely uneducated
