Quite true. However it's arguable that the security in Zeta (and ZZ) is significantly
worse than that in other Gundam shows. They could have turned their brig facilities into a drive-through, and it wouldn't have made much difference.

I'd say that this development is actually worse than the other one. Dropping a massive asteroid onto Earth in order to
preserve Earth's environment(!) is an obvious sign of insanity, and it's quite possible for just about anyone to go crazy.
However, Quattro's most significant character growth was to bury the hatchet with Amuro. By the end of Zeta, if he had learned
anything, it was that a feud over Lalah was childish, and was better left in the past. To regress a character without providing any explanation is just a sign of terrible writing.

Actually, that's sort of Char's role in Gundam. He basically loses every significant duel he's in throughout Mobile Suit Gundam, Zeta, and Char's Counterattack. This actually works out rather well in Zeta, where the point of his character is that he fails at the most important tasks, but it's rather disappointing in the other works. Some people may see Char as some sort of super-ace, but his real role is to be the super loser.
