One flashback of sympathetic motives (that absolutely matters, since the war ultimately grew out of said motives is still going on) is still a flashback of sympathetic motives. BlackAndWhiteMorality stresses a lack of these.

Transformers Prime is odd about vengeance and never terribly consistent in its portrayal. Usually, the message is that seeking vengeance is never worth it -- and indeed, Dreadwing\\\'s quest for it ends up getting him killed. It would seem that caring for your loved ones enough to \\\'\\\'want\\\'\\\' to (Arcee, Wheeljack, Dreadwing) is a positive quality. Actually strapping on your weapons and taking action (attacking Starscream, going after Hardshell, attacking Starscream) is not.
It doesn\\\'t fit under BlackAndWhiteMorality. The question of where it \\\'\\\'does\\\'\\\' fit is what we\\\'re trying to work out now, and it looks like White and Grey Vs. Grey and Black is the answer.
