The problem is, the biggest assholes aren't engaged in self-reflection at all; they think they're great! So for me the real question is how to get these people asking, "How did I become such an asshole, and why haven't I perceived that I am an asshole?"

I can say from my professional experience that being obliged to watch your back every day makes you a worse person than you would otherwise be -- both in the things you passively ignore and the things you are willing to do.

On the other hand, adverse environments also create heroes.

That seems redundant. Any environment with poorly contained radioactive spiders is adverse.
