Depends on your definition, but for me the pinnacle is the fool, where as the brave are just that, the fool is the braver still, going against what everyone thinks of him to stand up for himself

The most common answer is sacrificing one’s life to save others, and that’s way up there. But recently a dear friend who is fighting a very deadly form of cancer shared that she would have refused treatment a long time ago, except that she wants to stay alive for her young son, to give him as many memories as possible of his mom. That redefined it for me.

Is it true that there's not much of a point reflecting on the past and what you could have done differently in a situation?

Depends. It may be useful to not make the same mistake again in the future.

Those who fail to learn from history, are doomed to repeat it.

Weird at last.
I do not think this is true. I do, however, think there's a big difference in looking at what you might do differently, versus endlessly ruminating on how much of a fuck up it was.
I'm over-emphasizing the difference a little bit here, but how you reflect on past mistakes matters a lot.
And there's of course also the matter of how consciously you work on the things you learned. If you take a moment to note what went wrong and leave it at that, I suspect the odds of repeating the mistake are higher than if you work on the pitfall in question consciously.

Should contest-based movies and TV shows have a few scenes that focus on those that lose the contest?

How best to teach kids about the natural laws of the universe than by breaking those laws to observe them in action up close?
also. plot device/macguffins are weird.

Because if she didn't, the show would be an animated lecture, not an animated adventure.

So basically like the reboot then?

To get strong emotions they're not getting otherwise.

Because angst is delicious and I will fall for it every time. I love to see two people go through hardships that ultimately bring them closer together in the end (case in point, I'm watching Loki season 2 right now. Yes, I will take every excuse to gush about it.)

I like a healthy balance of both. A lot of angst followed by some nice slice-of-life stuff. Heavy emotions followed by a nice amount of peace.
