That's what I'm saying deception. His intent was in no way towards retribution. You could see it especially in WaT. But I wonder if instead it was chosen because of the people (particularly the alethi) view/ main use of "honor"

So I've been doing a reread of the cosmere and I was thinking harmony is created as a balance. A push, pull net zero. And with allomancy this was a common train of thought. And so I'm curious how much this beyond sazed own thoughts influenced how the shards combined as a people's perception of the shards changes. I compare this to retribution because during the time of the stormlight archives you have the vengeance pack from the alethi a very war focused but passionate people that consumed their idealogy. They cited honor as the reason for this pack. So I'm curious if the cognitive representation of such a strong and passionate people over the years was one of the main factors that led honor and odium (passion) to combine into retribution instead of another combination especially with taravangian not having this stronger intent when he seized both shards. Thoughts?
