Full disclosure: one thing you will NOT see in my upcoming essay detailing Tech's character development is the idea that his fall in the season 2 finale is part of his arc in the sense that it proves he will sacrifice himself to save his family - as if there was ever any doubt that Tech would do whatever was necessary to save them.
I have seen this opinion and the implication floated from several quarters (not very often, thankfully, but enough times to stand out) and all I can think is - Wait... I seriously thought it was obvious from the start! Same could be said for Hunter, Wrecker, and Echo (Crosshair had to get through his identity crisis phase first before I could be sure about him).
Anyway, just had to get that off my chest.
