My bigger criticism is that at no point is it ever explained why everyone at Corel blames Barrett for their town getting blown up by Shinra. Every last one of them was in that room pressuring Dyne (the last holdout) to agree to the Mako plant to save their dying coal town. He was nowhere near the plant when some people blew it up. But when you show up everyone just spits on him and he just takes it because.......?????????
I always assumed that Barrett convinced everyone else to go for it or lead the charge in some way which was why he caught most of the blame, but yeah I guess they don't really say that explicitly do they. Also I'm pretty sure the Corel reactor exploding was a random industrial accident that got blamed on the town by Shinra (unless that got retconned at some point).
