It just makes no damn sense that a character can be both lead and supporting in the same show - it's counter-intuitive because it's absurd. It's like saying a trap character should be eligible for both gender awards because they're male part of the time and female part of the time. Or are we going to allow that, too?
A trap is male 100% of the time.

Only quick fix to this is combining the two into a "best character" option. There are many characters in a grey zone where there is dispute between what role they play, and it really is best to leave that choice to each individual voters discretion. What matters is Rem was best female character of the year, and the results show. The double-option just allowed a character that played both roles(dependent on arch) throughout the series to be present in both categories, and subsequently win both categories. Combine the two, and problem solved.
