SPOT ON. I don't mind if a hero has to keep learning new lessons, but forgetting the old ones? Unforgiveable.
Also, her tragedies, while, ya know, tragic, aren't EPIC. My dad died suddently when I was pretty young. I've been betrayed and divorced. I've had no money. Etc etc. After a while, Buffy's woes start looking pretty pedestrian and we start thinking "well, SHIT. We deal with it, why can't she?"
