i haven't watched picard nor do I really care about the movies, they are sci-fi shlock. But his character in the series is great, the final scene still gets me in tears if i watch it ngl
To preserve the character you have to consider the movies and the Picard series non-canon. It's the only way. (Also some of the more iffy TNG episodes)
Also, Archer is the most ideal and ethical star fleet captain that all other captains should aspire to.
He took his dog with him on an away mission to meet with a species notoriously prickly about etiquette. He then let his dog pee on a sacred tree and refused to apologize.
Not only that, the aliens were the only suppliers of a doohicky that the ship needed to go to warp, so he risked getting his crew stranded over his dog.
Archer was an interesting character, but I wouldn't call him ideal or at all ethical. His character got stuck waaaaaaay too deep into the post-9/11 war on terror thing in season 3. He, uh.... he tortured some folks. I'm not sure if him feeling bad about it afterwards makes that ok.
of all the opinions that certainly is one

This is the correct opinion of Jean Luc Picard. Don't let bad creative decisions ruin a good character

When a show has so many people behind the wheel you gotta use an aggregate to figure out character.
That's fine by me. Also Trek canon is pretty iffy anyway.

Yeah. Even night in sickbay isn't as bad as the early TNG eps that went out of their way to shit on African and Irish people.
He did the breast he could in a difficult situation okay????

Yeah that's classic "we butchered millions in Vietnam but it made our boys sad so let's call it even" bullshit.
Remember that time he spaceborded a dude? Remeber all the times he didn’t listen to T’Pol when she was obviously right? Remember all the shouting?
Doing the breast he can my ass.
