Thinking about it, a lot of the "progressive" characters aren't the shining examples people might want to make them out as. Eliwood might be less conservative in values than others, but at best, he's still rich, sheltered, and privileged in basically every respect, even if that does come with a side of what's typically termed as "slacktivism".
Vaguely related, but I have a lot of trouble hashing out how characters feel about religion unless there's specific text about it. There's just very little on how important it is, outside the theocracies/clerics and the few people who've outright rejected the whole thing.
