"how it should have been to begin with" is of no value other than a historical data point from which to begin. Anything more than that is at once hobbling (Cathy Bates in Misery), and an unnecessary burden along the way. Or more succinctly, "he was always greedy; though what he grasps with one hand he flings away wit the other."
