You are not reading at a deep enough level to engage with the text. dath ilan is supposed to be a rationalist ideal world. It's a world without sadists. The text doesn't disagree with the claim that sadism is a distraction from following the rationalist goal.
I also don't know, but if you don't know, why are you making the claim in the first place instead of doing a bit of background research?
I didn't read dath ilan as an ideal world, just a better one.
You are missing a word in my sentence. The key word isn't "ideal" but "rationalist".
I didn't miss it and my response would be the same. Dath ilan is optimized better than our world, but certainly not maximally optimized.
