That's spectacularly tidy, but not much fun for whomever gets to write the
NG book.  ("Yeah, you get to write up the NG archetype, but it's pretty
much academic.")

More than the WECHBY (which was really just Eugene's theory, even within
the canon), I'm wondering if the NG isn't The Object of Desire.  That's a
little broader and might provide a little more room for interpretation (and
might make it more fun to play).
