Hi,
I can't see much point in that, saith me. The point of development 
is _in developing virtue_. The vice is there for a reason. Being the 
polar opposite it can stimulate the developing virtue. Vice has no 
other purpose.

Example: if there were no poverty in the world there would be no need 
for charity i.e. the need brings the virtue into the world.

Cheers,
Bruce
