(a) the factual statement that a flawed creator did deliver admirable works; (b) the causal hypothesis on whether the said flaw — (x) was what made the works possible, or (y) preempts and negates the merit of the works; and (c) the moral/legal judgment on how the creator should face consequences for the flaw.

如今，地狱就在心中，人们都在效仿浮士德了。[…] 契约不是用血，而是通过芯片签订的。比喻意义上像浮士德，为了短期的物质便利放弃身份和隐私；情节也一字不差，飞速划过读不懂的在线合同，只渴望献出同意。以太中的某处，听到微弱的鼠标点击声，住在机器里的魔鬼竖起了犄角。https://archive.is/iiG7q
