Not entirely wrong but I do think the inclusion of his early misogyny is a little important at least. Especially so with his training with the Kyoshi warriors and the rejection of gendered roles and his idea of masculine presentation being necessary for a warrior. Sokka becoming comfortable with the Kyoshi attire and presenting as fem, acknowledging their prowess and his own early incompetence in comparison etc. would mean less otherwise yknow? (not like that bit in itself is a huge arc but Suki is around for the rest of the show).
And then later we have Pakku & the Northern Water Tribe and all that…

it definitely makes him a better character to include it, no argument there, but it certainly doesn't gut him
