Also, it would have bogged the scene down. Looking at it again, I can guess at how these virtues turn to flaws on my own, although I can't articulate what I see as the flaw of Truth. I could be wrong about what I see, though.

I find it interesting that my guess about Flexibility suggests that while the Jedi and Sith share a virtue, the application of it is different.
