I'm not really sure the writers saw them as flaws!

That's the problem. I don't think they did. It's like in my other vid, Diamonds - I tried to show the mutiny arc in a way the writers never allowed it to develop; the vid draws different conclusions and at my worst days it pisses me off so much; it pains me to realise how much potential they wasted. I'd gladly feel for Anders and Adama, enjoy their flawed characters getting explored on screen some more, if TPTB actually acknowledged their mistakes and failures as such. Including shooting Gaeta in his leg and total power takeover performed by Adama when he was no longer in condition to make vital decision for the whole fleet.

Gah. I should really stop.
