Why do we care about ignorant, simple, slow, delusional, or even genuinely foolish characters? Because they are part of reality, and stories lose something when every character is clever, educated, and always right. We explore the differences between ignorance, simplicity, slowness, delusion, and stupidity, how each shapes a character's perspective, and why "ignorance is bliss" can be both a strength and a weakness in storytelling.
