I did not mean "plain idiotic behaviour". I meant illogical behaviour
that aroze from their personalities.

I do see your point :))

Oh.  Then part of the misunderstanding is on my end. People acting out of
their personality foibles is an example of good writing, not bad. I was
thinking more of cases where a character is presented as bright or heroic
or what have you and then doesn't live up to it because that would wreck
the writer's plot.
