not with that attitude

Interesting observation OP. It's been a while since I've read any Shakespeare, but I remember being impressed by the extent to which his villains are sympathetic and his heroes unsympathetic. I wonder if this is the specific innovation that has made Shakespeare so memorable among his contemporaries. Was he the one who began literature's long road of moral grey? Certainly nothing like this exists in Chaucer – where his heroes err, they are shown really not to be heroes. It might be useful to look at the attributes of the villains of his contemporaries, to see if the grey appears in them.

there is nothing imperfect about this post. it is pristine. keep trying to read heidegger, it does not appear you need any help. maybe using a hundred dollar bill as a bookmark will bring you good luck
