A criticism i’ve seen of Kelly
I’ve seen a lot of comments on YT shorts/Tiktok, etc where people flame Kelly for having poor arguments during the trial on Moclus in Season 1
Specifically the argument was concerning her getting Alara to crush the metal ball to show that women are strong, but is then hit with a valid counterpoint from the Moclan Arbitrator that Alara is Xelayan and that their species has super strength and that a Xelayan Male could do the same thing.
While i agree that Kelly did a poor job, the episode explains it pretty well when Kelly says that she only had a year of interplanetary law, so it’s no wonder she did poorly in an actual trial, let alone against a probably more experienced lawyer on Moclus.
It just stood out to me that people criticize her for having bad arguments but fail to realize why she has them
