Magnus,

But this is human-centric. War is not in DQ-perspective bad. Cancer
may be an attempt by DQ on DNA to improve the genome, or extend the
lifetime of Homo sapiens. Often, more mature and exciting love
eventually replaces lost love.

If you say DQ is moral AND immoral, regardless how high we scale the
intellect of the sentient considering DQ's morality, then you are
asserting an uncertainty principle. I agree.
