I'm afraid I'll have to call a truce to this discussion, or at least postpone it for a while. I'm going to be unable to respond for the next week, and that'll make it somewhat hard to carry on here.
I get what you're saying. I think I probably agree with you more than it looks like I do. I don't think it's a great test. I don't think it does everything the Tower thinks and hopes it does, but I also don't think anyone who "passes" it is as horrible a person as you imply.
Anyways. Til next time.

And of course, you might be right and the difficulty comes entirely from my own perception of life and reality. I'm not exactly the norm when it comes to perceiving the world

The first rule of being a ninja is "do no harm". Unless you intend to do harm, then do lots of harm.

But they could have played a part Singing, just like the Tinkers to which they're related may do *NM*

Because their feeble ability to sing to crops would really come in handy.
