If you're a "don't tread on me" (aka "no step on snek") person, I think you have to morally barbell it with "no step on snel"

Ie. in addition to being fiercely independent and not wanting others to trespass your boundaries, you also ought to be mindful and conscious to not step on fragile creatures (respect yin)

Resonates with the idea of “ahimsa” (non harming) in eastern spiritual traditions

Totally -- non-violence as the primary tenet

All forms of consciousness must be allowed time to reach whatever end goal they have set for themselves
