The approach in general is like this because all they have is Aegon's vision and what marked Aegon was witnessing the crude death of Rhaenyra, I would even say that it may be a defense mechanism to blame Daemon (as he-egg- did in the forest ) because of this situation, his father told him that he would come back and he didn't, we know how Daemon felt to the point of going into a suicidal fight.
Now, I agree that in general (fics) it is often overlooked how the war affected Daemon who also wanted the other children as his own, we must also take into account that Aegon did not witness many things probably because of his young age and how they were kept away from the details of the conflict even between Daemyra.
here (fic) Daemon was comforted on several occasions by Rhaenyra, she even told him that these are things that he did not do, Daemon is tormented by everything mentioned in this chapter, even Rhaenyra also has things that are difficult for her to handle (like the number of children that he had) in the end they are things that they did not live and here they are not their own dreams, everything is from the vision of a child who is deeply emotionally affected.
and I want to point out that Daemon also sometimes overlooked Egg's feelings so that he could overcome or handle certain things (the whole thing with the dragons) they are both full-fledged father and son emotionally speaking, but the responsibility of communication is of Daemon being the adult.
Sorry if I rambled too much😅 I just wanted to defend the point, because I don't feel like the author is burdening Daemon by blaming him, in fact Daemon has done a lot here already securing the greens from turning the other side.
