Specific#5: We value honesty from others and therefore it's a good standard to set. Meta#5: The first 3-4 commandments are primarily individual and are useful even by a simple person alone on an island, or a polymath adrift in space. The remainder focus on groups and societies.

Specific#2: Recognizing feedback from the world (and the value of it) is essential to growth and development. Meta#2: In contrast to most of the originals, the commandments I've proposed are all positively framed, (as injunctions can be legislated based on communal need).

Specific#1: Do or do not. There is no try. If not congruent, quit or do it later (when congruent) Meta#1: Like the originals, all the commandments I have proposed are ideal humanist directives, prioritized by importance (for cases where focus is limited or to resolve conflicts)
