That's kind of my point in considering that part of the story weak. Since we never get to learn anything really about the humans why should I care whether they return to earth. Or the sense of wonder they have when they do. Or why it is that you can stack them 20 deep in a steeply tilted spaceship and none come to harm (or why tilting a spaceship with artificial gravity would even have any effect on the humans inside).

Did Wall-E even have any kind of character arc? I don't think so. He was likeable ... but besides falling in love, was he any different at the end of the movie than at its start?

While Wall-E is the central cute character, I don't really think his was the story arc but rather it was Eve that provided it.
