Teaching is the best way to learn, whether it's STS, STO or just neutral.
I agree.

Given that you know that you have more or less an eternity to progress in your STS path, there are other ways to advance (albeit slower and more tedious in other ways.)
An STS entity of this sort would be less inclined to lie and manipulate in general, but would still for sure not hesitate to do it if there's a "good" reason.
Maybe I just contradicted something that Ra has stated. If so, I'd be more than happy if someone pointed it out for me.
I don't wish to contradict and certainly not argue, but I think that a STS entity would from start have the urge to lead/dominate others. The motivation might feel somewhat generous or neutral for awhile, and maybe not consciously to polarize self, but that would be the ultimate benefit as a move toward harvest.
True, the urge might be minimal for awhile if the entity is shy or wants to line up a lot of ducks first. Still the entity, after making the Choice, I think would want to feel progress.
Interesting.
