Unfortunately, we would say very much the opposite. Although this is a much-beloved character, it was beloved for ironic reasons. People in their heart of hearts were rooting for him to show a softer side, to show a more human side, to finally, after lo, many sessions in the series and many seasons, to finally warm up to his human companions and show a broader, deeper part of himself. In much the same way that people yearn for themselves to blossom and become complete as human beings and have all the attributes that are admired so they can become popular and, most of all, accepted by those around them who they truly care about, the ongoing tension in this series between the Spock character and his human companions was emblematic of the contrast and the potential odd circumstances that will arise.
When humans are in the presence of someone non-human who lacks their emotional depth, this in fact is a warning, not something to be admired or sought to emulate by the masses of humanity as an example of pristine nature and character seemingly untarnished by messy emotional swings and creating complications in how to cope and to manage those feelings in dealing with others. It is better to be human and filled with emotion at times as a full repertoire of possibilities, than a one-dimensional being who has only logic to command and experience, and will miss out on the greatest of possible experiences, the joy and bliss that is the experiencing of love, especially divine love.
