Hags: to get a better feel for your thinking, I'm going to go a little off-topic: what do you think of Maul's design? Based on your argument, it is a bad design to give him a Red basic because it works against his PtV. Do you really feel a "better design" would be to give him the Blue or Green basic and lower the values of his power combat attacks?

In Italy for thirty years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace. And what did that produce? The cuckoo-clock.
