...would it be overly petty if I did?

It is better to be respected than feared.

...there are some who'd say the opposite thing. It's in one of the plant's philosophy books, I'm sure.

I would strongly disagree with that logic.

People are more willing to assassinate someone they're not afraid of.

They're more willing to do so to people they fear, ma'am. They don't tend to like people they fear.

But they'd be afraid to even try, is the point.

The incentive, removing the source of their fear, is stronger, however.

So you're more likely to kill a wasp than a fly?

Yes.

I think you'd chase the fly and run from the wasp.

Flies are not harmful, ma'am.

Post by Tsaalyo Phoenix on May 8, 2017 20:21:34 GMT -5
But they're annoying.

And easily removable.

You're still more likely to go after a fly than a wasp.

Post by LS on May 8, 2017 22:49:57 GMT -5
But not to kill it, ma'am.

...you... you spare flies?

They serve a purpose in the ecosystem, ma'am.

To annoy?

Nourishment for higher lifeforms, ma'am.
