I always assumed the “gaslight everyone” thing was intentional—that the true power of the wild card was to always be able to play the role that will draw out the aspects of their confidantes’ personality that most strongly resonate with their Arcana. This is the power that makes the protagonists the most powerful Persona users, more important (edit: or maybe equally as important) than the ability to bond with any persona.
I can see where you’re coming from, but it still feels odd to me that it goes (so far, at least) unaddressed in the narrative. Seems like a pretty important thing to discuss, and kind of an indictment of the MC if they don’t mention to their friends that their relationship is extremely questionable because there is actual material utility in befriending someone, even if you, as the player, dislike them.
Mind you I haven’t played any other Persona games, so maybe this gets addressed in other places and you’re expected to be familiar. I’m just reminded of

the conversation with Harry’s ex where she complains that he speaks in dialogue trees.
