If she loses the jury votes of Austin, Liz and Julia that is also a result of her gameplay and shouldn't be passed off as a bitter jury.
*Dan's season 14 game could be considered because his only path to the final 2 was the one he took.
It wasn't for sure a mistake to win final 5 hoh. Vanessa's only path with the position she's been in the whole game has forced her to try to win every week or she could be gone. This is because her team sold her out for no reason other they didn't care enough to support her. So winning and keeping herself safe can't be that big a mistake if at all. Also she realized final 4 is all about whoever wins veto. Sure it would have been nice to compete for the hoh that week but she doesn't know if she woulda been in the house. And she woulda only won the hoh 33 percent of the time. If you have a good shot at final 5 in her position i think she was right to go ahead and win it. Not to mention it allowed her to setup who stayed or left in final 5 giving her a better path to finals.
How exactly would she be able to get to a final 2 and get Austwins votes? If she doesn't turn on Austin she most likely will have to go into a final 3 with austin and liz unless they decide to boot her. If she beats the odds and gets the win in final 3 comps so she can go to final 2 she still has to compete for votes in final 2 with an austwin. Which means she would never get their votes anyway. That's the funny thing is most people expect votes in jury from their main alliance where she can't get their votes.
Dan lied, backstabbed, promised grandma's bracelet to many people which made him deserve a bitter jury. Where vanessa has a bitter jury purely out of anger they didn't get her before she got them. And because the house got a campaign going that she was audrey number 2(lying and blaming others for stuff she did) which was a total lie. And that she was solely responsible for everything that happened in the house because her allies wouldn't take their own responsibility in the evictions. They just sold her out and dumped it all on her. Not saying Dan didn't need to do what he did to get to final 2 necessarily, just saying vanessa being blamed for the bitter jury isn't really her fault as much as it was all dan's fault.
