To reflect the erosion of spirituality in our own world in exchange for human centric capitalism and power? I get it

Like bending used to be something that deeply connected you to the earth. Also the raava/vaatu plot makes no sense at all because if the spiritual focus is BALANCE then why is vaatu portrayed as a villain when it represents the yin/yang balance. And then the spirits go on to become exploited and turned into literal nukes It feels like the show runners just gave up on the actual spiritual meaning and background all for the sake of flashier moments
