Essence: acute sensitivity to quality, contamination, and hierarchical position.

Continuously evaluates the environment - physical, social, and hierarchical - against a high internal standard. Quality-sensitivity is not merely aesthetic: securing better resources and a more protected position is experienced as a near-biological necessity. Highly sensitive to disrespect, encroachment, or loss of standing, with sharp and sustained retaliation when boundaries are violated. Monitors social rank in both directions. Resists being led or controlled.

Manifests as fastidious, reactive, and boundaried behavior.

Extreme manifestations: pathological disgust, chronic grievance, status narcissism, machiavellianism.
