Great points as usual Geenius.

The confusion of 1 & 6 also can present itself when out of a need for certainty and security a 6 adheres to a code of conduct or law unthinkingly and unquestioningly. This often appears as alignment with a principle, but alignment to principles involve reason and commitment not blind adherence.

Often in the average levels the two are hard to distinguish, but a 1 will violate a principle for a higher one and be confident in doing so. A 6 going against their code is left in anxiety and doubt. Unsure if there is even a higher law or principle to follow they will often obey the letter of the law, even when morally wrong . A 1 will obey the spirit of the law if strict adherence is wrong morally.
