I advise you to challenge yourself as a writer, by making a flawed, weak character. Explore the potential implications.

Wait. Stop. He doesn't have to "challenge" himself. He wrote a perfectly fine character. People are just reading too much into it. I knew exactly what to expect when I read his character. It'd be different he was writing poorly in the IC but he never got that chance because he was "one weakness too short".
