It just strikes me that a MoC is a rare thing, given the rate of
prated sparking. As such, the significance of the moral decision
ought to be at least some way proportional to the likelihood of
sparking. Yes, morality may be shades of gray, but at the
extremities these will still tend towards black or white, and I
would've thought that moral decisions sufficient to attract the
Eo4 will need to be of that order.

This also reminds me of a scene in the Torg novels, when a
Ravagon cornered someone at the point of their MoC. That seemed
to suggest that there was some detectable difference between
those who chose one moral path over the other, but that might be
my misrecollection....
