I agree with you on that. I'm trying to deconstruct it a bit with my SI, have an unsuccessful relationship, then also show that traits that are endearing on screen can be annoying in real life. Not that it hasn't been done before (e.g. UF CORE 3). Mostly I use my SI as a straight man to play everyone else's wackiness against.
I don't think having an self-insert is a requirement. Dartz barely has an SI, Meg has all of her memories from the other canon.
