I consider all of the behaviors you describe as basically transform functions. In fact, I consider any decision maker a type of transform function where you have input data that is run through a transform function (such as a behavior-executor, utility-maximizer, weighted goal system, a human mind, etc.) and output data is generated (and in the case of humans sent to our muscles, organs, etc.). The reason I mention this is that trying to describe a human's transform function (i.e., what people normally call their mind) as mostly a behavior-executor or just a utility-maximizer leads to problems. A human's transform function is enormously complex and includes both behavior execution aspects and utility maximization aspects. I also find that attempts to describe a human's transform function as 'basically a __' results in a subsequent failure to look at the actual transform function when trying to figure out how people will behave.
