Yes, it's exactly what Wally needs
No, he's been underused

Know what? This could actually be a really fun set-up. The classic Flash Family was never Barry's...but the current one is. So let the main book have Barry, NuWally, August and Meena (is she sticking around?) with occasional appearances from Avery (who will hopefully continue to have her own team's book as her main home) while Wally's book has himself and all the Pre-Flashpoint Family members.
Then in two years we can have Flash War II where ALL of them go to war!...written by Brian Michael Bendis.
Do you honestly feel that the current situation is worse for Wally than the years he was gone during the Nu52?

Well there is a difference. In the New 52 Wally didn't exist rather than being stuck in limbo, and DC even tried to pass off NuWally as the real one before realizing how stupid that was. So now it depends if you would rather have a character written badly or not being written at all. I'm fine with him being put in limbo until they actually figure what to do with Wally verses him being stuck in Abnett's Titans which has been a mess.
I mean they have pretty much squandered all of hype of Wally coming back in Rebirth already, but he is back and he will land somewhere eventually. Maybe a Garth or a Lilith are completely screwed, but Wally will eventually land somewhere. I'd rather that be in a place that actually knows what it is doing.
Lots of people here have voted for a Flash team title. I think it would sell fine. If you haven't seen the poll or haven't voted yet, you can go here:

Being in a really badly handled book can't be doing anything for his character though and that's the rub. On the whole I'd rather have him in a really good book instead of with the Titans and to my mind even being in limbo for a time would be preferable to being stuck in a bad book. That's just my opinion though.
Supporting LION FORGE COMICS and other independent publishers.
Check out Lion Forge's Catalyst Prime Universe. Its the best damned superhero verse in comics. Diverse characters and interesting stories set in a universe where anyone can be a hero. And company that prides itself on representation both in the comics themselves and in the people behind them.
Oh my goodness gracious! I've been bamboozled!

Well, who knows? Maybe the very fact that he is no longer in Titans means that DC has some other plans for him. I've been saying for a while that I think he's going to play some sort of role in Doomsday Clock (or whatever Doomsday Clock is leading up to), given that he's the poster boy for the fact that the DC timeline is currently broken.
This runs the issue of what many in DC actually prefer: Never figuring out anything for him. Leaving him to rot while pushing Barry and NuWally as the Flashes of relevance because NuWally facilitates Barry being the main Flash in a way that the Wally we've known for years does not. It's why he exists.
Very, very indifferent towards the character. Meh but from what I've seen, he's doing alright. As long as Barry is The Flash. I have no problems with him.
Imagine being proud to have negative traits. I can’t relate.
DC: Justice League, The Flash, Justice League Dark, Superman, Action Comics, Green Arrow, Justice League Odyssey, The Terrifics, Teen Titans, Titans, Brimstone, Female Furies, Damage, Heroes In Crisis
Marvel: The Punisher, Cosmic Ghost Rider, Venom, X-23, Cloak and Dagger, Jessica Jones, Sentry
Indies: Unnatural, Jeepers Creepers, Project Superpowers, Black Hammer, Ninja-K
I’d actually wanna see an arc or two where Barry gets depowered and Wally has to take over as the main Flash. Or where the Speed Force can only work for one of them at a time and they agree to hand off powers every other week.
