I'm struggling to see how this is relevant to the question of whether Lincoln deserved to have the personality that he did have.

You know what? I was interpreting the question as regarding public perception of personality, rather than actual personality, but re-reading it, I think you're right, my bad.

There only ever exists the public perception of personality. From the inside you just observe a stream of events. So you're not conflating and they're not funny.
