If you want to rewrite it to be more neutral, be my guest, but as written it\'s more about your opinion of the quality of the interaction than what actually happens in the game. If you do rewrite it, I still don\'t think ConflictBall is the right trope for what you\'re talking about. As one of the BallIndex tropes, like IdiotBall and VillainBall, it does pretty much always involve characters acting out of character for the sake of the plot. That\'s not really the case here -- these are conflicts that have been written into Veronica and the factions throughout the game. They don\'t come out of nowhere or require anyone to change their normal behaviour, so no one is picking up any balls they weren\'t already carrying.
