User blog comment:NerdWithAKeyboard/PE Proposal - Arthur Watts/@comment-24439896-20200218044557

I'm going to have to give Watts a "no". He didn't so much as "engineer" events as help others instigate them. It's not clear how much influence Watts had over the fall of Beacon and it appears to have mostly been Cinder's doing, Watts just gave her a few legs up. While the fall of Beacon was something Cinder directly caused, on Salem's behalf, it's unclear how many crimes Watts was responsible for. A lot of the crimes this proposal escribes to Watts were actually masterminded by Salem. The worst thing he did was shut off the heat in Mantle, but that wasn't to kill people so much as cause unrest, and it pales to the things Cinder, Salem and Adam have all done.
