To me there are two aspects to the question — is Emma likable/relatable and is the world building compelling enough that whatever Emma’s less likable traits might be, the audience still hopes she overcomes the external threats she faces. I think CS is only part of the problem. It’s the overall shoddy storytelling and world building that contributes to the sense that Emma is a cardboard prop battling trivial or ridiculous obstacles.
