I would even ask, if one wants a strong female character, why does she have to be shown slaying warriors by the dozen?
Gladriel killed nobody in any of three films, and she radiates strength. But, this contemporary desire to highlight some form of blatant "girl power", or something, creates Tauriels all of the time, which are both cliche and almost obligatory.
