This makes sense to me, and actually goes a long way to explaining a lot of things. Why Lorna's return on X-Men Blue got hijacked to put Havok on a pedestal at her expense. Why Marvel's tried to sneakily force Havok onto Lorna again in small ways, and keep her story and potential buried under being a supporting character for men. Cause that's how they want people to see her, and they're prepping audiences for her being treated that way if she gets used in the future.
Cebulski setting the record straight, and the public perception coming out of it (not to mention how execution actually plays out) are different things. I don't see how they can change the public perception no matter what they do.

This issue , 3 X-Men are out of the team i.e. Havok, Chamber and Karma.
The 8 members left on the team are Cyclops, Madrox, Dani, Illyana, Banshee, Juggernaut, Hope and maybe Wolvie is coming back.
I had wished Hope was the one who died instead of Chamber or Rahne.....
Yeah, she said 'you first' before blasting Harpoon. She's literally a female Cable.
But the strange thing is why did Cyclops not admonish her against killing again, when Cyclops just admonished Chamber.
Hope is dangerous in the team as she has no qualms about killing humans and mutants.
I've been trying to keep an open mind about this, but the deaths of Rahne, Jono, and the departures of Logan and Xi'an are just not sitting well with me. It all seems like such a waste.
He admonished her in War of the Realms. She gave no craps about it or the fact that she shot out his eye and was completely unapologetic about it. Sometimes I wonder if it’s the writer’s goals to make Hope completely unlikable considering they literally just make her Cable with boobs and none of the charisma.
Logan at least has a possibility of coming back. Xi’an’s departure was just cowardly. When you screw up like that in a superhero comic, you don’t just run from your mistake, you face it and redeem yourself. It just feels like he doesn’t want to write the New Mutants so he’s just writing them off one by one.

Hell, did Banshee even have a conversation with Jono, his former student, before Chamber died?
