Everything you said, PLUS this one spoiler about Klaus is driving me NUTS.
The stuff with making Stefan just as bad Damon to make Damon look "better" is EXACTLY what I've been afraid they were going to do since last spring. I'm not Damon's biggest fan to begin with, but if I were a Delena fan, I'd be really upset that they're not giving the character a true redemption that comes from within himself.
At least with Jeremy, they've gone from saying the character that they'll be getting rid of is leaving forever because they can't figure out how to plot for him at the moment to "he'll be back!" (I get the feeling they're jerking us around either way.)
