Interesting. Thanks for unpacking that.
For my own part, while I share what I think is the meaning of "politician" you are working with here, I seem to also have a distinct meaning for it which is just someone who primarily achieves their ends via manipulation of group hierarchies. (In that sense, for example, I often talk about some managers being politicians while others are technicians.)
That's an interesting way of thinking about it. Thanks for starting this conversation, it was fun.
