I’ve added a link to “The Trouble With ‘Good’ ”, as well as a footnote about my basis for using the concept of affective judgment.
you haven’t made the case that habitually “smoothing” this judgment is an improvement (outside the pathological cases).
My main point is that the “pathological” cases are actually very common (but vary in intensity), and most of the benefit is derived from preventing them from occurring. I’ll try to make this clearer.
Thanks for the feedback.
