the abused are more empathic by virtue of their experience

I don't think that's actually true, and indeed I think it's usually the opposite. But, regardless, I don't see Sakura being any less nice than Rin.

Why are you saying that? Like I said, I see it as generally the opposite.

Regardless, though, I see no reason to believe she'd be any less nice than Rin. You can believe whatever the hell you like....

How do you know that they wouldn't have been nice anyway?

Also, there are plenty of examples of the opposite, where someone who has been abused has ended up abusing others as a result. Indeed, many murderers were abused as children, and many child abusers were themselves abused.

the fact that you are arguing this reflects badly, but fine whatever

You are arguing for the negative, it reflects badly, let's just move on.

Personally I find him brick wall stupid but that's what makes him work as a character which is also the reason why I dislike hf, he shifts too much to the right to make the events in the route believable in the way nasu claims  he intended.

He's not stupid, just naive and generally trusting. The two aren't the same.

What do you mean "shifts too much to the right"?
