They're going for the Toph approach and that's precisely the problem. I'd put money on her disability being the source of her exceptional bending, albeit with the odd angst episode thrown in, but nobody here would be dumb enough to take the bet.
Toph works because she's a rarity. Even disregarding the fact that you make her less special by just recycling the character with a separate disability, Toph wasn't the fucking Avatar.
She was a greenhouse rose that grew in power on her own in secret because her parents didn't actually give a shit so long as she was within the compound. She wasn't the chosen one who had a thousand responsibilities from birth.
