Soo...
I just ran across an argument for kat*ang.
It basically says that kat*ang had to happen because otherwise the whole plot with the Guru and the Avatar state wouldn't make any sense.
Why?
Because the Avatar chose love over power.
But he was about to choose power over the so called love in the catacombs, just before he was struck by Azula's lightning. Like ??
It doesn't make sense. In that moment he was about to sacrifice his "love" for power to fulfill his destiny.
Cause the whole point of the Avatar is to bring harmony to the world and be a bridge between the human and the spirit world.
If the Avatar chooses love over power than cool, great, wonderful.
But this particular power was necessary for him to keep harmony. This particular power was necessary for him to fulfill his destiny. This particular power was to control the Avatar state which is absolutely desastrous and dangerous if not under proper control.
He didn't choose love over power. He chose selfishness over power.
He wanted the girl so he didn't let go of his attachment to her.
He wanted to keep his faith and beliefs so he threw a tantrum when they were discussing killing Ozai.
He wanted to keep Sokka and Katara around and feared losing them so he hid Hakoda's letter.
He wanted to not be the Avatar so he ran away and froze himself in an ice ball while being in the Avatar state that he couldn't control.
When did he ever choose love over power?
The power being selfish and for his personal gain not the power he needed to save the world and keep it save.
Never.
He chose his own desires over the possible fate of the world.
He took it so far that he didn't want to learn fire bending for a long time. And why? Because he burnt Katara. Why did this happen? Because he was too impatient and decided that he wanted to get straight to the fun part of fire bending, even though JeongJeong told him how dangerous fire can be if it runs loose.
When did he do something as noble as choosing love over power?
He didn't choose the power he needed - not wanted, NEEDED - because of his own selfishness and was ready to screw the world for his own wellbeing and beliefs.
And don't get me wrong. The bald kid is great and I like him pre season three. But they made him so unlikeable in the third season. His actions had no real consequences and he basically got everything he wanted after being an entitled brat.
He never had to make a choice between love and power. He had to make a choice between being selfish and fulfilling his destiny. He chose his selfishness and was rewarded for it.

Rewatching the final 15 of GO S2 on repeat in a desperate attempt to figure out How The Fuck to ask for a divorce, with the same dedication as Aziraphale hopping between hotel soft porn TV segments to figure out the plot in the theoretical GO2 book
