Diane was offensive to more than a few in her early appearances. This led to several people taking a dislike to her. Her character has grown and developed since then. She has all but said, "I was wrong". Fine for her. But if someone didn't like her yesterday, there is no reason that person should be compelled to like her today. Do I hate her now? No. Do I need to see her punished in the story? No. Do I need to see her in the story at all? If Dan had not made Diane somehow important to Susan, Adrian Raven, and Rhoda, I really would not miss her if she did not reappear in the narrative. As it is, if the story ever moves beyond the High Schools of Moperville, I won't need updates on her continuing education.

The landing on Hudson river might be comparable, but that's only one I can think of. Well, maybe also Apollo 13, but that's different kind of problem. Granted, I might remember more given enough time. They COULD at least lose the wings in landing, that usually don't reduce chance of passengers to leave unharmed, but yes, if it would be Launchpad McQuack the airplane cabin would end in two pieces and yet everyone would be ok. Usually, if the remains of plane are spread over two kilometers, there are no survivors.

There is a tongue in cheek expression, "Any landing you can walk away from is a good one.". There is also Launchpad McQuack, who walked from every of his "landings" ...
