Let me ask you this, Shi Len: If a tree fell in the middle of a forest and nobody was there to see or hear it, Did a tree fell?

You want Facts, and 888th spoon-fed it to you; but you chose to turn away. 888 provided, with absolute clarity, the many logic of our world as a metaphor and explanation for events happened in the series, of which you successfully rejected. You have so far proven yourself to be too narrow-minded to accept reasoning.

Zuko & Ozai's Agni Kai: Imagine you're a spectator and predicted the outcome of said duel, would you do what you've so persistently suggested? Would you step out into the ring, with hundreds of observers, generals, guards galore and challenge Ozai - the Fire Lord of the time? Here's survival instinct 101 for you: One don't physically challenge a political-powerful tyrant with the entire nation's armada at his disposal. Next thing you know, you'll be desperately on-the-run for the rest of your life, just because of one pathetically sorry mistake.

Jeong Jeong superior to Iroh: This has got to be your most laughable trolling effort. Listen: You don't follow a leader who's overall attribute prowess surpasses yours without reason, and you don't make them one without reason too. A position higher than a globally-recognized and highly respected Grand Lotus? What, a 10 star hyper-grand ultimate 3rd-tier head-of-all-heads Greatgreatgreat-grand Lotus? Now that is deserving of an overzealous L-O-L.

Sokka & Toph taking on Elites: Hey, you're standing on an unstable metal platform suspended hundreds of feet above ground, and like 888th said: carrying an infinite load of fully-automatic bazooka. Sure, just blast the hell out of the fragile area; by fragile, I mean your opponent is one who could break entire catwalks as if she were shredding tissue. Yeah, the "catwalk" your feet and your life is depending on from 600 feet of free-falling death.

Just put yourself in these scenarios and ponder. Place yourself in Iroh's sandal, and be intrigued with the many decision which defies your logic. Some things need not hardcore facts to explain. In fact, many discoveries of the modern world are made from highly logical hypothesis of the happenings/results/outcomes of an experiment. But with your mindset, and determination, I believe nothing, not even the creator's words at this point could satisfy your argument; After all, they're going for the lazy route, yes? :)

Here's my suggestion: take a break from this, read up behavioral sciences, reinvigorate your passion for Avatar, then reexamine this discussion. Have a nice day.
