Yes that is mostly what I was responding to, you included it in your interpretation so I don’t think it should be surprising that somebody may have thoughts about that part of your interpretation.
>she also never cares about social norms, she only does those things to get people off her back so she can live quietly
That wasn’t my interpretation, if that was the case I don’t think Keiko would frequently seek out her sisters counsel which results in attracting more attention to her ‘weird’ habits. Regardless I don’t think social norms and rules can be considered the same thing. Of course everybody will look at things differently that’s just the nature of discussing books. I just don’t think she could be considered a sociopath, she doesn’t present the key symptoms (irritability, manipulation, risk taking behavior, arrogance, hostility, etc.) and that was my main point.
