Ps: Repentance is one of the things that sell better as science fiction.. (Linebarger?)

Not to be dismissive, just "providing" another perspective while I take a walk to think about that:

In the other bidirection..

If Steve and Ive grokked each others' Jobs..

(You could complete the couplet but I may or may not recommend it)

Edit: Atticus would have been more convincing (to me) if he was more ex-Confederate officer and less Mary Sue

Ps2: deprogramming (ie something that could be applied to Scott Locklin.. I have read his Optiksy takes while thinking about his quasiracist ones.. & tentatively conclude that the Buxton [e: dissonance] angle^W ansatz is in the realm of.. plausibility)

Ps3: there's the Peenemuende slave Labor museum^W monument. Compare German (P/Tin Drum) and Japanese (??? sporadic priests^W Buddhist chaplains I guess) tatemae?

Ps4: maybe one could leave it up to American initiative/dynamism* to uncover more of these living [prep]aradoxes.. I highly doubt it could scale (even after defocusing from ORs)

U: not chaplain-trainee in question but a sizeable pctage of the paradoxes do seem to come from the upper middle/lower upper (more than directly explicated by Linebarger)

Not: Magpie* regurgitation of mixed Confucianist/Supply side precepts

"皈依者狂热" in the comments

Is this Confucianist Propaganda :)

I was actually surprised that baike.baidu gives pretty much the same story for the CR as en.wikipedia.

The chengyu pretty much summarises what is called "2nd intention" in fencing.

I guess if foxes know they're getting extracted no matter what happens, 狐假虎威 ?

Re: 皈依者狂热 I was surprised to find there actually was a joke:

"Q. What did capitalism accomplish in one year that communism could not do in seventy years?"

because I had figured that it took 70 years of communism for the people to decide the capitalists had been right about communism, and 10 years of capitalism for the people to decide the communists had been right about capitalism, so now they're trying feudalism...

Re: Atticus, arguably he's allowed to be, because we see him through Scout's eyes? (there is a fan theory that the family characters in Big Bang Theory and Young Sheldon are exactly the same, only in BBT we see them as Sheldon perceives them, and in YS we see them as they perceive themselves?)

Hmm not sure what chengyu I mentioned?

Fencing chengyus should be a thing!

Koryū arts should have had tonne of it tho that you could transplant wholesale?

Placeholder for the wisdom of making exceptions for Atticus (in the name of Harper's stand-in-- so precluding cognizance of any sort of repentance?)

Cicada <- Mantis <- Oriole <- Courtier <- Pond, of which only the first three are explicit...

I did once run across some nice phrases at the end of a karate book, which (judging by the lack of hiragana) had been lifted, unattributed, from a chengyu-style source.

If we take 4-word to be the equivalent of 4-character:

  Parry? Wait 'til late
  Your lunge surprises yourself
  Champion with two techniques
(hmm, that worked better than I thought it might!)
Note that Szeto Wah had more of a pastor/frontman persona than a Besserwisser persona => the meme (lunge?) exceeded his plunge (scheme?)
