I know "fan-service" is typically a negative term but I was not at all implying that it was lazy or pandering on the part of the writers. The moment made perfect sense in the context of the whole story and their relationship. I meant that it literally serviced the fans, haha; as in I think we were all dreading a world without Kim in it.

And I never said anything about Kim leaving Jimmy "because he's becoming Saul," but the context of this season has been that they've been growing apart. The Saul thing was simply a part of the bigger picture of the distance that has been growing between them.
