I wrote and deleted a comment to the effect of “The Sword of Good didn't kill him, and the Sword appears to be a judge of good intentions = Friendliness (though not good reasoning)”, then deleted it on consideration that unfriendliness-through-failures-of-reasoning might be worse than the current state of the world. But "there's going to be a next try" indeed outweighs that. I think.
