I’d argue that every Bond has been good in their own way. What brought some of them down is the poor writing, not what the actor brought to the role.

I’d argue that they still meet the criteria, even the seemingly invincible characters, by making their flaw caring about someone close to them. Villains these days often present a danger not because they’re capable of killing the hero, but because the hero has a close personal attachment to someone that isn’t invincible.
