I don't mean to imply that we disagree or that you didn't put a big enough disclaimer.
I was trying to highlight what the differences were between what happens when you allow yourself to use the "sometimes Dark Arts is the way to go" frame over the "Instead of using Dark Arts, I will study them until I can separate the active ingredient from the Dark" frame, and one of the big ones is the dangers of Dark Arts.
:) "active ingredients aren't dark"+"inactive ingredients are"
Fair enough
I'll agree with that in a weak sense, but not in stronger senses.
