Yep. Bruce is an enneagram 9, that means he has conscious ego defenses, but also mental habits that work unconsciously to neutralize anger and rage. Think that Adam Sandler movie from the mid 00s “Anger Management.”

Anger is so scary due to childhood trauma (Bruce was abused as a child) that the unconscious mental habits are trying to shortcut anger for it got him in trouble in the past. Likewise The Hulk is the opposite extreme.

Then again with 50 years of comics there have been dozens of different Hulks with Bruce as the core over the years. (Not counting other hulks inside of other people like Red Hulk aka the General Thunderbird Ross or something which is the father in law of one of Bruce’s love interests, there is a half a dozen other gamma infused Hulk like people.)
