Summary
Hatake Kakashi doesn't want a genin team. ANBU Hound can protect the village well enough, and he didn't have to deal with things like emotions.
Kakashi already had plenty of things keep his mind off his numerous failures. Like S- rank missions, or A-rank missions, or occasionally socializing with an algorithmically selected friend group whenever the Psych department started to question his fitness for the field, or even a B-rank mission when he wanted to relax.
Things are fine - could a depressed person spend 70% of their time reading jutsu theory and refining their abilities, trying to fill their never-ending loneliness with studying and rationality?
(Yes.)
Hiruzen gives him a team anyway. Fuck.Or
How I’d write Naruto given that the Elemental Nations are all authoritarian military dictatorships, trauma is real, and Kakashi’s only coping skill is being better than everybody else. Ft. A Frankly Excessive Amount of Worldbuilding.

Wherein Alex Rider’s attempt at diplomatic relations with one obtuse English organization has put him on a crash course with an even more frustrating one.
