But... thats what... she did. Lacus saw Meer probably for the first time in the Archangel, and all she did was... meh.

Besides, what did she say to Meer when she finally met her? You could be me if you like, but we are different persons. If Meer's existence was to initially bring the people of PLANT together, I don't think Lacus would have minded. Lacus only stepped in after it got out of hand.

Of course that is what he did, but Earth wouldn't see it that way. The latter could have easily made a counterargument that Dully was a lying sob, and attempted to unite PLANT under his thumbs through well, a lie. Thus, it could be a wining situation for Dully (by using Meer), but at the same time, it could be a winning situation for Earth, too.

She had those. Granted there weren't many, but when she chose to share her deeper, darker secrets, she does so with Kira, and Kira only.

The question is, how much of those does she have? Why is she required to have deep, dark secrets? One can possess sharp intuition without retaining deep, dark secrets.
