Personally, I find aesthetic purity to be a very strong source of attachment for me. It’s certainly caused ‘unreasonable attachments’, like being stuck on being “right” and ascribing a purity to it (eg. I am right about this and you are wrong, therefore I will absolutely refuse to do this small nitpicky thing and I don’t care if I jam up the whole process because it’s MORALLY WRONG not to do so. I am the lone voice of dissent!). Oh, school..
I came across the same hack, or coping trick. Just remap the definition of what you’re being pure about to “winning” or “rationality”.
Pretty sure I’m displaying that I missed the point somehow.
