If there's a rat in a dark room, you won't find it with a torchlight, because it'll scuttle repeatedly into the dark as you sweep the room. You need to turn on the light so you can see the whole room. Thus with the ego. Step Five: turn on the light to see the whole room, and you'll find the ego.
You don't figure out the jigsaw puzzle picture by looking at the individual pieces. They won't tell you anything. Assemble the pieces, then stand back.
Defects come from ego. Virtues come from God. They are not to be equated. Listing virtues side by side with defects obscures their source, appropriates them as the individual's, diminishes their value, and reduces them to same level as the sordid instruments of the ego. Step Five: defects only.
Defects are muck on one's spectacles and the missteps that flow from such blindness. Virtues are correct sight and actions that flow from that sight.
