The problem with that, Ryan, is that although it's VERY easy to make comparisons between Zoey and Sky (and subsequently have a debate on that), Nalyd wouldn't get that point because he just admitted in this blog that he never saw TDR or TDAS. I'm sure if he did, then he'd be willing to take about this whole "Sky = Zoey 2.0" matter that people keep talking about. But overall, I do agree with him that Sky, like Zoey, is an extremely bland "strong girl" who's there to be a female protagonist. However, as evident by these two, the ONLY female protagonist that TD has ever done well, written well, and still portrayed as having flaws while still ultimately being a strong woman, was Gwen in TDI. Beth was a forced underdog in TDA with little to no development/expansion, and Heather's role in TDWT was only good because it served as such a great contrast to her role as a villain in TDI and an anti-hero in TDA.

However, I have heard the theories that A: Sky was an apologetic version of Zoey, and subsequently B: Dave/Sky was an apologetic/self-parody version of Mike/Zoey. While I'm not sure if they've been confirmed, I do find those to be interesting ideas.
