I think there is a little bit of Xander in him where he sees the world is very obvious black and white, and can be a little bit self centered and unforgiving (Xander's lack of trust and resentment of Angel reminds me of how Scott treats Derek).
*nods* Scott definitely has a black and white view a lot of the time. (black - Derek, white - Allison) And is ridiculously focused on Allison to the point of selfishness. So yes, Buffy has her own faults but they are very different from Scott's.
I'll consent that Stiles does share some personality traits with Buffy and Buffy/Joyce was often similar to Stiles/Sheriff. A lot of touching moments all around. Though from a 'role in the ensemble' angle, Buffy will always be the center with the storyline revolving around her, and Stiles will still be a sidekick. A fantastic character and the heart of the show, but still the sidekick.
I really do think Jeff uses a mixture of Buffy character archetypes in his characters, because I find all of them fit multiple molds and have different traits of different characters, which I really enjoy. agreed!
I find it pretty amazing too how all the traits of Buffy/Willow/Xander and their friendship exist in Scott and Stiles and their friendship. Agreed again! :D
