I feel like Uzi doesn't get to make fun of Cyn's immaturity and shallow personality nearly enough.
Imagine coming up with such a fool-proof plan to control everything, only to not enjoy one's own company, nor have others genuinely appreciate spending time with you, without regularly getting their minds wiped. At least Wheatly seemed innocuous and quirky long enough to trick Chel.
I feel like Uzi doesn’t get to make fun of Cyn’s intelligence and shallow personality nearly enough.
Pretty much the only time they got in front of each other was spent fighting. Maybe if we had a season 2 ¯(ツ)_/¯
Wheatley was literally built to be a moron (if PotatOS wasn't lying about that, which would have required her to lie about not being able to lie, which seems a bit farfetched) and he still made an almost-perfect plan. Cyn had everything she needed to make her life perfect and she decided to... destroy everything without thinking about the long term.
Your second-sentence is exactly my point. I get the Murderbots author wanted us disgusted and repulsed by Cyn, but her personality developement is not even on-par with an abused child.
Sure, she's not going to like losing in 1v1, until she convinces herself she does, but nothing we're shown is going to make her change tactics beyond repeatedly escalating. Without a season 2, all we have is a backwater world of drones living to see another day.
