Perfection is what? Perfection is not necessarily never committing a mistake. Perfection is not letting the mistake define us. Not letting that mistake be repeated till it becomes a part of us.
So in general, as you said the Pandavas, Yudhishthira gambles. So there is a time in the Ramayana also, Ram is described to be the ideal character. But Ram gets angry at the Devatas when Sita is abducted.
