No, let me go back to the beast abduction nesta retcon, so in acosf it says:
Literally never happens, though. Tamlin wants (and needs) the person that killed Andras, the Treaty he invents also only allows him to take the killer. This is the only time Nesta is acknowledged by Tamlin in that scene:
And isn't it interesting that Elain is the more self-serving one here? That phrasing seems like she's ready to let Feyre die bc she did kill the wolf after all, meanwhile Nesta never speaks.
Anyway, I dislike the retcon for many reasons but one of them is that it makes Nesta the guilty party in Feyre's abduction. Like objectively Tamlin is the one with power in that scene (well some power he's still cursed) but this retcon pretends that Nesta should and could have done something, that she is at fault for Feyre being taken. But she plainly isn't, Tamlin doesn't want her and even if he did, self sacrifice is an insane ask, it's perfectly fine for Nesta to not want to do that. Plus Feyre wouldn't have let her anyway, she's got a much stronger martyrial streak.
And bullshit like that lets me know that Nesta is not sjm's new self insert, those remain as Feyre and Rhysand, because this entire scene and really that entire book is about making Nesta be a terrible person that finally has to admit that she has always been wrong and evil, where Feyre and the Night Court are perfect and right. Like that entire scene is so endlessly cringe and not about Nesta and not about Tamlin, it's just about Feyre again and again lest anyone dare become a character in their own right.
