If you want concrete numbers, you might want to set up a bunch of controls and test around them. OOTP has for a long time kept the exact calculations they use to come up with stuff under the hood, not just for player personalities and morale but the actual game engine itself.

Yes, thus my question earlier about whether he was catching enough (fish. His personality mentions he likes to fish).
What you're pointing out and I agree is that the game cannot/should not attempt to rationalize each and every aspect. It's like those who complain their AGM doesn't make rational moves and therefore the game's broken. Well, no actually some AGMs suck, I guess. And some players are unhappy for unapparent reasons, and will never be made happy. It would be a flaw in the game logic to have a clear solution to every problem.
