I'm not quite sure how what you say is really relevant, and I agree with MasterDinadan.
If the legacy challenge is supposed to be a "challenge", people shouldn't be given a greater reward for performing less well. Simple as that.
Relevant as in due to the type of game it is, there really isn't a need to min/max. This isn't WoW after all...

There should be some sort of 'Murphy's Law' about WoW. One certainly sees people use it a lot in completely irrelevant ways when talking about any game...

Eh, there's about 5 traits that have any real mechanical effect. Amusingly, I pretty much have all of them. :P I am a real life min-maxer. Life is just a problem to be solved.

I'm not so sure that the game is making a qualitative choice on traits.
For some reason I feel certainly sure that it does, but I'm finding it hard to find a reliable source for this... perhaps because I'm also trying to study at the same time, but perhaps I am wrong and just imagined it all. Can anyone confirm/deny the game making this choice? Because obviously if it doesn't, there's no issue.

If you take that angle, why do the legacy challenge at all? Surely there should be no need to maximise your household wealth, or to give points for portraits, or score... I mean, sure, I go nuts with my regular Sims, and I like playing legacy challenges with-extra-challenge, but I also think the basic challenge should be logical. It isn't logical to give incentives to play less well.
Zazazu does have a point that the 'bad' traits often aren't that bad, however. But if you're randomly choosing, something like good or artistic is a lot nicer than never-nude or clumsy, which you'll be more likely to end up with if the choice is purely random... *shrugs*

Is it okay if my sim goes to the gym to take a shower, or to the park to grill or to the library to use a computer? Is this the meaning of "mooching"?
