Le Guinian Anarchism is way too far away from the Tao Te Ching

That's only if you're using euclidean distance. Who knows what weird coordinate system this political tesseract uses.

I've imposed a coordinate system on it:

Le Guinian anarchism seems to be at about (0.5, 1, 1, 1) and Tao Te Ching at about (1, 0, 0, 0.8) for a four-dimensional Euclidean distance of √(0.5² + 1² + 1² + 0.2²) = √2.29 = 1.51327...

Given that the maximum distance is √4 = 2, that's pretty far away.
