* Second: What exactly does it mean by \\\"unreasonable\\\"? \\\"Bad\\\" seems to more or less stand on its own, but... well, you see what I\\\'m asking.
* Third: How is \\\"TheHedonist\\\" a strawman? It\\\'s not as if the people it describes don\\\'t exist, and if there \\\'\\\'were\\\'\\\' such a \\\"straw\\\" character portrayed negatively, I don\\\'t think the author would have \\\"someone who wants everyone to be happy\\\" in mind.
* Anyway, fourth: What is with all the SexTropes (with assorted kinks) on the \\\"good\\\" side of the divider? Obviously, trying to make sex and pleasure completely separate things would be pointless, but it\\\'s nowhere having a monopoly on happiness, so I don\\\'t see any call for such a focus on it. (In fact, I wonder if they wouldn\\\'t be more at home \\\'\\\'at\\\'\\\' one of those indexes.)
* That brings me to my fifth point, which is what brought me here in the first place: Why are NeutralGood and ChaoticGood showcased here, while LawfulGood isn\\\'t?
