Oh I agree Arya's story was handled poorly but it had nothing to do with not getting enough world building while in Braavos. She got her faceless man training and then skipped town which is all that was needed for the show.
They chose her to kill the night king for shock value when her story was probably better served trying to assassinate Cersei instead.

>The fact that the show bogged Maisie down with an annoying, repetitive arc instead of using her presence in Braavos to eavesdrop on politics or to play with the idea that the Faceless Men triggered the Doom and or explore their links to dragons…shows that D&D had a fundamental misunderstanding of the story they were telling.
Braavosi politics, Faceless Men links to the doom or dragons is nice world building that is best suited for a book not a TV show where it would just be wasting time on stuff or people that do not matter or help a character grow.

Sounds like they read the post from the other day about a date almost turning into a threesome when the guy had a surprise girl waiting in the bedroom.
