No, I think you're right that there's an emotionally positive side to this as well as a negative one, and it's really a toss up which one draws focus. I'm inclined to focus on the negative, but part of that is probably because identity crisis is basically my favorite kind of narrative tension. Well, no, maybe that's not true, but it is my favorite kind of narrative tension that doesn't thrill or inspire good feelings.
