I think 5) has some merit, but wasn't worded as carefully as it could have been. I find many of the things I dislike most in others are the "failings" that I have a natural proclivity for, but have worked hard to overcome. I'm not sure how well it works as a test of character though, because it's hard to tell where the person is on their "overcoming" journey. Though as you say, there are many exceptions. I have a strong tendency towards honesty and a strong aversion to dishonesty, for example. Trying to untangle it all very likely too complex a problem for this to be used as a meaningful heuristic, but it probably shouldn't be completely ignored, either.
