The Pros and Cons of the Summers in X-Men Apocalypse (third viewing)

Pro:
They're introduced.
They don't ruin the story.
They don't take too much time up in the story for its main characters: Xavier, Magneto and Mystique.
Scott and Jean like each other. Simple. Let's not get into it.
Alex dies. Scott reacts.
Scott vs Storm leaders homage to comics.
Jean defeats Apocalypse, setting up the next film, adding some curiosity to her character.

Con:
The character usage is way worse than any Avengers film other than the first one and I'm including the overrated Civil War film.
Jean defeating Apocalypse makes no sense since she's barely introduced, barely in the franchise, barely has her powers.
Jean fighting Psylocke would've added a bit since they're both psychics.
