When I start going around calling Aristotelian virtue ethics "embarrassing", my qualifications (which, I mean, at least I have some education and background in this area) are relevant, but until then, I'm not going much beyond skepticism.

I don't think I've misunderstood what he was saying. If Rube was, as you seem to be suggesting, rolling his eyes only at the phraseology, then fine, but I don't know why the wording would matter to him or anyone else - that would be the sort of pedantry people would normally attribute to... well, me. And the thing you quoted was also not an instance of me misrepresenting you, either, much as you might have wanted to try to convince yourself of that at the time.
