Also, I'm pretty sure it would break the format if the main character didn't have a stand. That's the point, it makes no sense its bizarre, it would also shake things up a little, give the opportunity for more things to be introduced, give the story a greater ability to work with non-stand users, and show how a protagonist can make major accomplishments without relying on a stand. But there's a consistency to Jojo. Main characters, stands, rules, etc. Bizarre accounts for the newly introduced topics like hamon, stands, requiem, heaven, rock humans, etc. Also, I find that weaker abilities are better to make good accomplishments from the main character. Take characters like Johnny who is a cripple, but can use nail bullets to make up for his shortcomings. A non-stand user would probably just lose faith in that character.
