Yeah everyone gets mad at Marius for picking Eponine over Cosette in the musical, because the musical interprets Eponine's "unfeminine" traits as making her cool and tomboyish and therefore actually more attractive than Cosette by modern standards

Ironically, I'm not sure that would work, if only because Eponine's whole childhood relies on her being one of the Treasured Cis Daughters? but then again Les Mis wants very badly to pretend Eponine isn't even one of the Thénardiers' children.

Treating Eponine's current situation as a justified comeuppance for her childhood of being one of Cosette's Evil Stepsisters (which we never actually got to see, and which Cosette gets rescued from as the beginning of her backstory) is kind of awkward yes
