Sigh, no, whether or not any act of punishment is good or bad is irrelevant. That your justification -for a specific act of punishment- is not logically coherent is all that TQ addresses. TQ would apply -even if it were- a "good" act of punishment. It isn't a "good" act of punishment (nor is criticism of that act diminished or addressed in any way) for the TQ offered, there must be some other reason. The problem isn't whether or not the punishment was "good" but that neither of us can conclude that it was good...or can be excused as "not bad"..by what you offered.
In short, and simply, to argue that the child killing bit is consistent with a character that is always "good" or that the act itself was "good" - or to address my criticism that it is "not good" something other than-
"the egyptians did it too"
-is required.
