1/ Let's define civilization as as an aspirational state where there is no need to intentionally cause pain to others to get what you want

2/ If "good" is defined as people generally on board with civilizing process (ie don't want to cause needless pain), what % of us are good?

3/ In answering this q we tend to replace moral absolutes of good/evil with shades of grey, to acknowledge complexity of trying to be good

Wut?

My point is the orientational aspect is secondary to actual desire to cause pain

Protect implies a mental model of those who seek to "attack" it, and a response to their perceived behaviors/states/actions

Correct you barbarian

Yes
