If you talk about illness, it's not about importance, it's about detriment. It's a matter of perspective and an agent can only consider one perspective. Altruism can impose unsolvable constraints on that perspective. You can't say in the same paragraph that a system is dysfunctional and that the personalities thrive, who enforce the system. One functioning part of the system is enforcing the convention. A dysfunctional system is an oxymoron. Enforcing altruism is a different matter. Altruism is inhibited by differing conventions, that preclude cooperation.
