On the other hand, it can be useful to encourage smart feelings in order to motivate you to achieve your values. If you want to do this, then the second and fifth cells in the last row can be "yes/yes".
Agreed. I think delegating computational load to your unconscious by designing "good instincts" is a great life strategy. For the purposes of the table, I decided it makes most sense if you factor this into whether you "like the feeling", so I'd place these in the middle row instead.
