It wasn't that they weren't punished. Like I said, I felt they were being given more respect than they deserved. The Troupe may be charismatic and clever and may even have some virtues but at the end of the day they're still horrible people. Shouldn't that be the final point, rather than the fact that they have some virtues?

But yeah the moral dissonance has been a noticeable pain for me throughout the show. I only mention it now because it's just a little too egregious to brush aside now. As you've pointed out, the show has shown a blind eye to a lot of things to begin with but it should be noted that the show has also been quick to emphasis certain virtues so I do find that it's playing up the moral compass point a bit, and i honestly have to wonder what direction it's pointing at (and don't say East...).
