Steve showing this raging side is a massive part of who he is and could have easily been accomadated in the show. Easily.

everyone should have their bad and good sides shown, and most have. Steve is no exception (no matter who is up against in an argument). To only represent his placid calm side is a dishonest representation of who he is.

Your post just seems like just rationalisation to me. Sorry, honestly not trying to offend, I like the way you debate, but it does.

I don't think Steve shows this "bad side" very often, and when he does he very quickly calms down and apologizes. If you ask me, the reason they highlighted Nathan and Ife (who were no less invisible/"whitewashed" than Steve) and not Steve was because their fights ultimately impact the storyline more. Steve's going to be friends with them all within the next hour anyways, so from an editors standpoint who cares?

Not saying you're necessarily wrong, they can certainly edit almost any person into almost any role, just saying I think there's a bit of confirmation bias going on, because there's so much that isn't shown.
