I think it's really two sides of the same coin. Both viewpoints stem from
the belief that she's just a human being. One viewpoint expresses thjis by
saying "Look!" She's flawed! She's not a goddess, she is merely human.
The other viewpoint is expressed by saying "yes, she's flawed because she
is
human, just like us, who are all flawed."
