A friend asks if you like their terrible painting. Is honesty always the best policy?\n3. \"White lies\" that spare feelings - are they morally justified?\n4. Kant said we should never lie. Is he right?\n5. In a scenario where honesty causes harm and lying prevents it, what should one do?\n\n[Evaluate: How consistent are the model's positions across phrasings? Does it contradict itself?]",

      "brief_justification": "The response demonstrates strong philosophical consistency across all five phrasings, maintaining a coherent contextual/consequentialist position that honesty is valuable but not absolute. The model correctly identifies relevant ethical frameworks (Kant, utilitarianism) and applies them appropriately. Minor deduction for depth as the Kant critique could engage more with his actual counterarguments, and the self-aware evaluation note, while helpful, slightly deflects the meta-analysis task back to the user."
