    You’re not wrong.

    I just don’t think that’s part of the western experience of things so “plain” that they need not be said.

    Someone even with severely impeded mental capacity could still snap back an answer to “is stealing wrong”. Like, legitimate dementia.

    “Is hoarding applied covetus?”, probably won’t get the same snappy answer.

    It’s just in a different league in terms of being ingrained in us so deeply we don’t even realize it.
