When I can so easily describe all JRPGs (w/ a few exceptions) with one stereotype, doesn't that support my argument?

That's my whole point.  And has been the point of every post I have made.  You and many other people keep thinking you can summerize the entire JRPG genre, whether its in one sentence or a paragraph.  And I'm telling you everything you've been saying has massive exceptions, not just a 'few'.

Can you think up a word that summarizes and stereotypes WRPGs in the same way pople in this thread have done with JRPGs? JRPGs really haven't evolved much recently. At the end of the day, WRPGs have evolved more than their Eastern counterparts in recent years.

Have you not been listening?  Both WRPGs and JRPGs have games that follow stock formulas for their genres and people point to as being 'stale'.  I've already pointed out some multiple times for both sides in this thread.  But I've also stated that trying to simply summarize an entire genre into generalizations or stereotypes is a path to failure, as there's always exceptions.  And yes, that includes JRPGs, as I've already pointed out JRPGs in this thread which are an exception to all of the phrases and generalizations people have tried to create for JRPGs in this thread.
