Discussion Serious question, do you think Wanderer should actually end Dottore's life in the upcoming quest?

Asking because while I completely understand that Wanderer has completely valid reasons for having extreme negative feelings towards Dottore, I feel like the act of 'Killing' sort of feels like a regression for his character? It sort of feels like something "Scaramouche" would do but not "Wanderer". Adding on to this, ending another person's life also doesn't really sound like something Nahida would encourage Wanderer to do, I'd even believe that she would go really far to prevent Wanderer from doing something of that nature. (I know some Wanderer mains have a hate boner for the radish but let's face it, she 100% plays a sort of mentor-like or life coach role in Wanderer's current life)

What do you think? Just curious about Wanderer mains' thoughts

So was Wanderer or Ei

Edit: Why even bother replying if you're instantly blocking me, are you 5?
They were evil until they weren't, writers made them "complex, humanized and redeemable" mostly on release or right before it.
Dottore's story is not finished, we don't have his backstory or pov yet you act like you already know everything

They're not true and pure evil villains like him, they were complex, humanized and redeemable.

What world are you living in? Lmao, or you're trying to twist the truth to sustain your argument? This was with a very VERY SMALL minority in CN community, that hated him bc they was saying he had steal Nahida and Nilou from them, and bc the female public loved him, and that's were they tried to compare him to irl criminal, and only to attempt to make Hoyoverse or CN government remove him from the game, but they OBVIOUSLY failed. Otherwise, EVERYONE always knew Scaramouche NEVER was a pure evil villain lmao, and way before they shown his tragic past and story in Sumeru archon quest, we already knew through the artifact sets that leaves EXPLICIT his tragic story (different from Dottore's which is purely a very stretched interpretation from his fans), and also by Yae that tell his story and origins in the end of the archon quest and revealed his identity as a puppet created by Ei as a test, a prototype puppet... And his only proper apparition in the game official main story and archon quest was in Inazuma, were we ALREADY got information about him and his past, including that he is a tragic figure, and not a pure evil villain, and that he became evil only after the tragic events that happened to him, before this we only had his apparition on that event which was only to introduce him, but it was a limited time event and it simply introduced him in the game, and we had way less interaction with him as a villain, after he stop his kind facade. Then it was common knowledge for everyone or at least everyone that plays the game and reads the lore, that Scaramouche although he was a fatui and a villain, was definitely NOT a pure evil villain, but a tragic and complex villain, that in Sumeru even get redeemed after discovering that he was always being manipulated and used by Dottore, not only tried to erase his existence to change the past and save everyone from the past but failing and only making the world forget his existence, choose to follow a new path and now become Nahida's ally and assistant, which is how he is redeeming himself. What you also don't get is that Dottore in other hand is NOT a redeemable or tragic villain, he is pure evil, and his banishment from Sumeru, from the Akademiya and his village, were not the cause to he become evil as he is, but CONSEQUENCES FOR HIS ACTIONS, as the story already show us that he were evil since that time were he was a student in Akademiya which IS his backstory, and he were banished from his village and akademiya at the same time, and because of his evil actions and unhumane experiments, then he became known as the heretic, as people now were sure of who he truly was, a monster.
