Naive Perspective on Authority and Material Interest. A king would have an intrinsic understanding of their sentience and the sentience of other people. His demenor would be that of nobility wherein their station would contradict their understanding of shared sentience. The contradiction would precipatate a sense of insecurity in their station. They would have an interest in feeling a greater sense of security. They would feel more secure by asserting those who do not hold their station are inferior.

against the interest of the common good. The work asserts that a King is predisposed to care for their subordinates. (Chap. 64) The reality could not be furthur from the truth.
Absurd and Idealized Relationships. The characters provide favors that go far beyond any reasonable expectation for their relationships. They affirm their feelings in such a way that demands a immediate response from the recieving party. The unreasonable favors shift the moment to precipatate the recieving party engaging in more commitment than what their level of trust would otherwise precipatate. The favors deminish the recipient's ability to deny their consent for levels of intimacy. Engaging in such love bombing is something that erodes trust in a relationship. The work consistantly fails to understand authority and trust relationships.
Not Enjoyable. The work fails to meet any reasonable expectation for representing person to person interactions. There is nothing to suggest the work is againt the absurd behavior of its characters. There is nothing to indicate a level of self awareness. The work gives no room to allow for such oversight. The work presents interpersonal relationships in a way contradictory to any reasonable expectation. One has to be on-guard when reading the work as their worldview is so untrustworthy. The work isn't enjoyable and it is not worth recommending.
