I never said she was, but a teenager who went through a traumatic experience is still ultimately a teenager. In fact, if anything, that experience would have made her more guarded, not more open.

It makes sense to present Ellie as a moron and Dina as someone smart and capable, who actually knows how to survive in that world?

She isn't presented as anything like a moron

Like I said: it's an awful adaptation, entirely missing the point of the original characters and story, but I'm happy for everyone who enjoys it. Fortunately none of the misguided efforst by Mazin can erase my memories of experiencing this story in its brilliant, original version.

It's a good adaptation that perfectly represents the ideas of the original and improves on them in certain areas.
