I think the problem is moreso that people feel their time/expectations were wasted with her-time that could've easily gone to better places-and the second her storyline was finally going somewhere she's gone.
It's like if every day at the gas station I get told that within the month on a random day I'll get free nachos-but "I'm rarely in the mood for nachos, especially gas station nachos" I think to myself. Even the idea of them leaves a bad taste in my mouth. But every day the attendant reminds me that those free nachos are in the works so eventually, when it is free nacho day, I say: "Why not? They're free and maybe I'll like gas station nachos again or I can just wash them down with a slurpee if I don't like them." So I get the nachos and take one bite and turn around to say thanks and when I turn back the guy who puts out the bakery goods has lit my nachos on fire after dousing them with gasoline-he also works there. I turn back to the first attendant(They're also the owner) and he just gestures widely and with dramatic emphasis: "Behold...free nachos."
I leave, confused, knowing I'll be back for gas eventually but never able to forget the free nachos I didn't want and still don't
