So you're saying he made a lot of characters so that he could get away with writing a bad story?

I don't know about that, considering I don't think he tried to "get away with" anything. He very clearly wrote what he did intentionally (as per the essay I linked earlier), so it's not like he was hiding anything.

You don't use a crutch when your plan is to crash, basically.
