Well yeah, that's kind of what I meant. If there was something in the story line of season 01 that needed fleshing out, it was generally done. For example, when they were wandering around in the sewers after meeting Andromon for the first time and all talking about what they missed about home. I didn't really have a lot of unanswered questions about it. As opposed to season 02 where it'd be like "Yup, it's 3 months later and summer's almost over. We destroyed control spires the whole time and did nothing else!" 02 left too much up to the imagination and seemed too slapdash, especially things that were downright discontinuous with what viewers know to be false, ie. Tai being in the DigiWorld trying to get Agumon to digivolve, when it's later discovered that only a D3 can open a DigiPort.
I kind of disagree with your assessment of Tai. Once he realized that he could actually get hurt in the DigiWorld during the end of the Etemon arc, he wasn't so courageous. And he went pretty postal during the Machinedraon portion when Kari was sick, and illuminated a bit of the back story there, too.
I just felt that we got a chance to get to know them all in season 01, as opposed to poor Yolei, about whom we know pretty much nothing. She's the least developed character by far. We know her parents own a store. That's about it.
Oh well...I guess 4 extra episodes made THAT much of a difference.
