This fandom is so silly because: what does it mean that we have a noble house capable of dominating a land constantly involved in every war and tormented by every turmoil that afflicts the continent and with atavistic internal struggles so ancient that we cannot establish its origin, which can boast men like Black Fish so famous for military skills to have Jaime fucking Lannister, the youngest and most promising of the royal guards, in adoration and a temperament so proud and determined that Ned Stark was careful not to challenge one of them (yes, he was joking but there was a grain of truth) and the fandom sees it as a weak and uninteresting house because..their symbol is a fish?
Could GRRM strive to find a better animal? Maybe.
At the same time, is it worth it if I say that it is not just any fish but a TROUT, a fish famous for its ability to completely change its shape to adapt and thrive to all kinds of water, salty or not, and that it swims stubbornly against the terrible currents to achieve its goal? like...its cool but you guys would like it only if it was a shark or an orca.
