I get the impression that you think the narrative quality of this anime is dependent on the defensibility of the Psycho-Pass system.

But given Gen's track record, I'm not sure why anybody would think that.

Spoiler for Fate/Zero and Madoka Magica spoilers:

I mean, consider the Puella Magi system in Madoka Magica, and the Holy Grail system in Fate/Zero... Gen can weave pretty compelling tales about people falling victim to majorly messed up systems.

Now, to be clear, the Psycho-Pass system may have a certain logic to it. It probably does result in more criminals being caught/killed (but it probably victimizes loads of innocent people in the process of getting there). I can imagine somebody like Light Yagami thinking that it's just wonderful.

But I definitely think the system is meant to creep out the average viewer, and to leave us disturbed by it. I really don't think that it's meant to be seen in a positive light.
