Now granted this might change at the end, but I still don't expect it to be because he is a teenager in over his head.

I can see Yamato had a strict upbringing but I guess I disagree with you that his personality flaws can't manifest in a grown up.
I never said it wasn't possible for an adult to have the same flaws. I said it was less possible. It's less believable to have a sheltered adult than it is to have a sheltered child.

He's supposed to act older than his age. Nothing about his position or upbringing is normal. I think I can suspend my disbelief considering I don't know how a 17-year-old raised from the ground up to be a government leader is supposed to act.

I will agree with this, however. The anime original flashback was a bit much.
