I don't really believe in "other characters went through worse and they didn't do the thing", too reminiscent of real life misery poker and "I did it so why can't you???". And Desmond was human garbage who should have died in FE7.
That said, Zephiel did make the choice to become a scalie and try to ruin the world and murder people, and he's a pain in the ass to fight because of FE6's ridiculous throne bonuses. So even if his FE7 self was a precious woobie who deserved better I never had the "oh no, why???" reaction to his death like I had for Lyon's in FE8 or Ishtar in FE4.
