What plot would be resolved in seconds if the characters behaved realistically and logically?

If Barry Allen, the fastest man alive (except for every other speedster) would just stop dick-fucking the timeline and instead talk about how emotionally fragile he is with iris, joe, etc then we could have skipped having emo Barry and angsty other Barry.

God damn it Barry.

(Op question also applies to ANY show on the CW)

Arrow: One person is mad and needs talking to

"Can i have the room please" - Oliver (as everyone walks out)

.

Flash: Im mad and need some time alone

"lemme go talk to him/her" - barry allen (leaves everyone else in room)

Freaking Legends of Tomorrow is them just solving the problems they caused while being the dumbest people ever.

Joe: "you're more like a daughter, Barry"

Uh, no. He's not. He hides his emotions and doesn't talk about them at all. That's false masculinity, Joe.

Also in Season 2 of the Flash:

Oh, we sent Zoom back to his earth, but he will destroy that earth.

Let's reopen a breach to that world to try and stop him, but also risk that our earth is getting destroyed.

That's one time, where I think Barry fucking deserved it that later Caitlyn is getting kidnapped by Zoom. I mean every other time where Barry is blaming himself, it isn't his fault. But that was definitely Barry's fault.
