The characters of MLP FIM were also quite complex. Twilight loved books sure but she also had the mentality of a scientist. Always try to find new knowledge and more understanding. The times she freaked out was when there was no answer to be found. Like when she wanted to know what she should do for a friendship report and the only answer was to dismiss it. Or when she tried to unravel the enigma of Pinkie Pie’s powers. (I still hate that episode because it feels like Twilight is being punished for trying to understand things.).
She also had many instances of rallying others and showing off her charisma and somewhat dominant nature.
Yet she also wasn’t without her flaws like getting quickly irritated at time wasters or irrational behavior and sometimes being a little entitled though she still tries to be humble.
If you can’t tell Twilight was by far my favorite character because she really felt like how I did. Someone from a very sheltered enviroment having to deal with new things. She had absolute faith in her idol, a large technical variety of skills to use, a strong work ethic and everything else that comes with being from the higher class. She even had the very uneven maturity level of someone from a sheltered enviroment with them being even higher than most adults in how the larger world works and how to do proper social interactions. Yet being little more than a child with more casual or spontaneous things or having a childlike awe and admiration for her idols.

Blame writers who didn’t really watch the show they were hired to write for, and executives who were more concerned with getting a product “out the door” to sell toys than crafting characters and story well. The earlier writers cared more about the lore and character development since they created those characters and world.
I really didn’t like how Twilight was sort of flanderized to be a bookhorse. Twilight is more than just books or even knowledge. She is irritable, dignified, determined, focused, curious, selfless, hungry for self-improvement and a loyal servant. A lot of those traits seemed to vanish in later seasons.

there were whole centuries in european history, where in many places, the christian bible was literally the only book.
@mjangelvortex
Wait so basically Christian’s where trying to pull an Xbox “The One” back then?

Makes sense given The Bible. That’s how it got its name.
Edited
it means holy book in some languages as well.
“Biblia” is the plural of “Biblio”/“Biblion” (book). It simply means “books”.
It is always the same with her.
So business as usual then? :)
NOW!
According to the word origin for Bible on dictionary.com, at least.
Looks like it was borrowed into Latin from Greek, though.
Huh. Okay then…
Apparently, it’s both.
