Couldn’t hide my disappointment at the end when they were like [strong female character] was created from the stories of over fifty different scientists…

Does the female aspect really matter because if not you could just leave it out... I’m sure many would still agree with you.

Um… I don’t think it matters to me what the characters gender was, but it seemed like the least I could do since I wasn’t going to go back and look up the characters name.

I think you’re reading something into my comment I don’t intend? Strictly referring to a character Ulana Khomyuk from the HBO miniseries here.

They thought you were mad there was a woman scientist and not that they reduced 50 people to 1.

Ooooo… okay, somehow I was getting like a “did you really have to gender the example?“ vibe… so hopefully that explains my confusion/response.
