"one man's villain is another man's hero"

what matters, for us, is what the *main* storyteller portrays.. the one "running" the show, as it were.

any story can and does have variants : look at Jack and the Beanstalk.

the original tale has Jack as a hero and the giant as a villain but a variant has Jack as a villain and the giant as a victim (Jack invaded the giant's home, stole the giant's possessions and killed him).. the story with the most weight would be the original, since that one was made by the one "running" the show, as were, rather than "fan theory / alternate character depiction".
