I’d be interested to hear what you think honor is. :) I think the word ‘honor’ is used to point at some ‘inherently good things about a person’ (things related to integrity, promise-keeping, fairness, respect, grace) and also to point at some things about how others perceive you (that you’re seen as having honesty, principle, dignity, etc.). I wasn’t trying to precisely define ‘honor’, just saying that honor seemed to involve both internal-virtue-like things and reputation-like things.
