While I agree that looking only for wolves would simplify things, I think that there are also some problems with exclusively looking for wolves. As we search for wolves, each of us has a set of "parameters", so to speak, that we think a wolf will fit. A lover-wolf will not necessarily fit those same parameters. He or she will behave differently than will the other wolves - for the lover-wolf has someone to be protected at all costs. Though all the wolves will likely try to protect each other, it is all right for them to make a sacrifice. For a lover, this is not acceptable.

In short, I think that while we're looking for wolves, we might miss the lover-wolf. So we should keep our eyes open for both.
