Tbh that's realy stupid... it's like you're saying we cannot like a character unless she or he is useful in the bloody plot. No we don't have too. Nobody must follow your rules. Getting to know members of a band and getting to know a character in a fictional story is literally on two different sides of a spectrum. Of course you wouldn't go befriend someone who is similar to you in a group cause you probably have no choice but to do that... a fictional story is different. You do not have to go love some character because they are different from you. You can like a character cause they are similar and relatable. To even like a character in the first place, you have to feel some sort of similarity. In real life, you have the privledge to get to know that person really damn well. In a story, you have limited time so you need to find some sort of character you relate with to even form some sort of connection. Of course you can end up loving a character completely different from you sometimes but 85% or the time, you favourite character of the series is most likely some character you relate with.I'm sorry, in my opinion, your reasonings make no sense.
