Coding is as much a matter of personal growth as it is of logic and control-flow. I keep patience, curiosity, & exuberance in the same toolbox as vim and git.

No, but success in life does. You can build anything with or without love, but I know which house I'd rather live in, which meal I'd rather eat.
There is such a thing as a spiteful genius, though. Kind of person you'd like to hear their sonatas but wouldn't want to share a drink with... or let near your kids...
I don't think empathy implies love. It's possible to understand how others feel without having any attachment to them. I think this was researched in regards to psychopaths, who may actually have a strong empathy ability, but can emotionally distance themself.

So you're saying we should optimize CS curriculum to ethical psychopaths ;)
Jokes aside, I think that's fair.
