It's consistently those with an oldworld view of thinking that try to use newtypes as a weapon, drawing them into conflicts and destroying them as people with the brutality of war.
Yeah, like the defining tragedy of the original series is how people with the ability to understand each other through an empathic connection end up being used as weapons against each other.
And that the tragedy keeps repeating, that the characters with the responsibility to prevent it aren't able to is described over and over as their failure.

Spoilers for Gundam Unicorn
Full Frontal is a literal clone of Char. The real Char died in Char's Counter Attack.
I sort of suspected that.
