Rereading, I do not think I could have done more to make it clear that I reject the moralism you accuse me of. As I say above, in large part I'm interested in this subject because I suffer from the failings it describes, and I think Ainslie goes a long way towards showing why it's not just a question of "trying to be more rational".
