Human Shaped Ghosts in Canon

Kinda not really enjoying the current dialog around "human shaped ghosts" in the Ghostbusters movies. Specifically mentioning Melody as some outlier that "breaks canon" because she's human shaped and acts normal.

While I do see the point some folks make over the way the character is portrayed, in that she feels more modern than someone who died in the early 1900s, I will say it's worth noting she was a human ghost who seemed to pop in on and probably learn from those who are still alive over the last century either by observation or experience. It's worth noting she was surprised at Phoebes lack of reaction, not that she could communicate with Phoebe, that was something she seemed to have figured out, implying an intelligence and memory.

I love this town, I love you guys, but we gotta stop having bad faith discussions over canon while ignoring canon... it... it doesn't work like that.
