** IgnorantOfTheirOwnIgnorance / CompletelyMissingThePoint: For all that he's read and can recite, John really doesn't get Shakespeare. For instance, his attestations of chastity and prudish nature do ''not'' reflect an in-depth understanding of The Bard's works, which have similes, metaphors, and blatant references (''positive'' ones) to sex abound - casual or romantic. He's WrongGenreSavvy because he never understood the genre he ''thinks'' he does in the first place.

* DarkMessiah: Hmmm, let's see. First of all, [[MeaningfulName "Mond" means world.]] His inferiors reference him by the title "fordship." Then, there's his extremist philosophies.
