On the cover, yes.
In the actual content, where visuals obviously are less important? I don't buy it. There's a content-based reason why Itsuki isn't getting more screen time...
It wouldn't surprise me in the least to see Itsuki do a heel turn. He came across
very suspicious to me in the last Sighs episode...

... I've seen
quite a lot of fiction that contradicts that.
This is hardly an universal rule, Kaisos.

Heroes give up their happy endings so that everyone else can have a happy ending. That's the point.

No, that's not the point, imo.
The point of TTGL is that with enough effort and application of free will you can overcome any obstacle. This is the point, Kaisos, that the anime
clearly kept going back to time and time again.

And TTGL was not generally upbeat. In fact, it was mostly sad. Inspiring, but sad.

TTGL was
extremely upbeat. It's popularity is based, to large degree, on how upbeat it is. It's main characters are all
relentlessly upbeat. It's a glass half-full anime if ever there was one.
