It DOES undermine his character!! I find it really frustrating because some Jason fans (especially those who don't read comics, in my experience, lol) have a tendency to try to remove his agency in his choices by a.) blaming the pit and b.) BLAMING TALIA. I hate this because first of all, I find Jason immensely tragic, sympathetic, and reasonable-as-a-character exactly as he is. I understand that some people find the worst bad faith readings of him out there very frustrating and might be reacting to that, but the solution isn't to go in the opposite direction, imo. And blaming the one female character around him at the time is just level one misogyny.
