Am I the only one who didn't like Sahz?

Sazh wasn't cowardly, he was reluctant to fight. He wasn't weak, he was inexperienced. He was a joke character, he was witty. Plus he was the only person in the game who didn't either act like an asshat or go all mopey for an extended period of time.

I used Sazh in my party because of his awesome haste early on but once Hope learns it Sazh becomes less useful since Hope has Medic(I suck at controlling the medic and I let Hope heal for me).
