>If it disentangled itself from Trigger, you'd remove 1/2 the villains in the game
wtf are you talking about? this isn't even true

>we're left with a boilerplate JRPG environmentalist story
Anyone who thinks the main point of Cross was to get across an "environmentalist message" is fucking retarded. That was just developed in tiny portion of the game at Hyra's Swamp. If you were able to pick up on the actual major themes of the game regarding individual value in relation to the seemingly infinite vastness of the universe, then maybe you would've been able to understand and appreciate the story.

cherry picking, many of the character designs are great

Cross is great and absolutely stands on its own outside of trigger. Also, it has the greatest pre rendered backgrounds of all time

Crono cross is definitely under rated

I fire it up every once and awhile because it's really comfy.
