	One issue that confuses many as to the ~~natural~~ of the aural manifestation commonly known as the "moral axis" (a misnomer for reasons to be elaborated on) is the precise nature of the Good and Evil configurations. These names are quite unfortunate, assigned by a [[guardinal]] sage eons ago when the configurations were first discovered; to quote a prominent [[yugoloth]] sage, "the terms 'good' and 'evil' for these manifestations are perhaps the biggest propoganda triumph on the part of the guardinals in the multiverse's history". Here, I will describe exactly why these terms do not apply as commonly conceived.

	Logically, the idea of aural configurations being determined by some sort of abstract, objective morality is paradoxical in a number of ways; though the Sentient Multiverse theory is espoused by many, none have given any reasoning why the multiverse would manifest a moral leaning in such a manner. Further, while these configurations do line up somewhat with the moral beliefs of many cultures, no culture strictly holds to it except those guided by the configurations themselves, of which there are few. So what exactly are these configurations?

	Alternate terminology for a time for these extrema were the terms "self-sacrificing" and "self-interested", though experimentation proved that acts categorized in such a manner didn't seem to always correlate properly.

It is proposed - though this is admittedly unlikely to be accepted by the lay public - that these extrema be renamed "Other" and "Self".
