Plenty of people have said it was a missed opportunity for Boyd and Lena to interact in season 3, because of how similar their experiences were (both victims of 'child abuse' in a sense, both meant purely as pawns for evil by the adults who created them- well, Gyro mostly created Boyd, but Akita corrupted his programming to turn him into a killer robot- both alone and deprived of a normal childhood until they met their respective best friend who helped change their lives).
But I've never seen anyone talk about the parallels between Webby and Boyd. In some ways, they're quite similar too. Both very outgoing and friendly, both quite autistic-coded, both quite socially awkward (only Webby's awkwardness is more from her desperation to fit in and belong, as well as her intense excitableness and hyperactiveness, whereas Boyd's awkwardness is more from his stilted mannerisms), and both never had the opportunity to have friends and live like normal kids for so long until Huey/Huey, Dewey, and Louie (respectively) came into their lives.
Honestly, tho, I think Webby would tell Boyd he's had it far worse- being essentially alone for twenty years, finding himself owned and controlled by countless people, having his programming overwritten countless times, never being seen as a real child or given the chance to live free and make his own choices (basically, Boyd was always a slave and never had anyone care about him since Gyro; even Doofus's parents basically used him for their newfound freedom and wealth).
Still, it's a neat comparison too!
