something about 2 ppl having the same power.
but then again.
sasuke and kakashi both have sharingan(kakashis somewhat lighter power, but more exp). same power?
gaara and naruto. driven by inner deamons. same power?
common, both can excist.
just pick your favorite and stick to him/her.
their not in each others way for developing so...
I think what happens basically, is that some people, for whatever reason they might have, want to see Hinata dead.
Personally, I don't agree with that. But everybody is entitled to hate this or that character and wish him or her dead, even without any particular reason to do so...
I think that there are not facts in the anime to support some statements here, but considering that if the facts don't justify the theory, one should change the facts, that is not a problem at all.
As a matter of fact, the question that started this thread would be better formulated, in my opinion, of course, if it was stated this way:
Should *all* people with Byakugan die to pave the way for Hinata? Since I believe, what was implied in the question is that two characters with the same blood-line limit can't co-exist. So, we should ask ourselves: Should all the Hyuuga clan be exterminated to pave the way for Hinata? If so, Hinata would develop as a character in a very similar way to Itachi.
So there, Hinata would be the Itachi of her generation, and all people who hate her now would start liking her. Hanabi, on the other hand, could be put to good use and, from then on, and live to chase her big sister around...
