Well, I'm not really making an argument for good!Angel here. (Too tired at the moment! My brain wants to feel like mush as I watch The Closer.)
I was just speculating about how the multiple fan explanations play out--they're all bad for Buffy. I don't see a way to positively spin this to give Buffy an "out". I can see an "out" for Angel, but not Buffy. What's worse, they do seem to be devoting a lot of time to Angel to put his actions in perspective right now. Angel's getting attention while Buffy... I have a sinking suspicion it will stand as is for the finale.
But this is my remaining cynicism re: the Twilight arc. I really hate the way that was executed. The way lots of fans hate the way Seeing Red was executed--there's so many levels of DNW for me regarding that story development.
