Agreed on both.
On one hand it is understandable that Disney is dipping their toes in the water on this topic. It's new ground and we have a lot of bigots with far too much confidence out there.
On the other hand it's frustrating they don't just jump all the way in. Yes, the character is actually one of the heroes of the film, but in an ensemble of redeemed heroes it seems like weak representation.
It's still a step in the right direction IMO.
