Spoiler:
inno very half formed shower theory crafting. But i feel like this is somehow important to the overall theme of mahoyo and the fifth magic somehow. As well as aoko and touko's character dynamic.

Their worth (life) ends when humans can no longer bear that purity.
My Fanfics. Read 'em. Or not.McJon01: We all know that the real reason Archer would lose to Rider is because the events of his own Holy Grail War left him with a particular weakness toward "older sister" types.
character development?

「星の開拓者」が増殖した時代 とか
Little kids want to be Shirou, misanthropic teens want to be Shiki, grown men want to be Soujuurou, and old men want to be Nrvnqsr.
Nobody really envies Mikiya's position though.
Don't mindread or you'll tell lies.

As for Soujuurou, think about it.
Stable string of part-time jobs, good self-reliance, strong body, decent prospects for marriage.
Basically all you need is to add education and then you could go places.

At any rate there's a bit of explanation due for Nrvnqsr.
He can travel, he has pets that adore him, and he chases around young girls for recreation.
Basically living the fuckin' dream.
Well, Shirou's a nigh-suicidal altruist and Shiki (both of them) has to deal with suppressed murderous urges.
I think being a super-strong weirdo from the mountains sounds pretty good compared to those fuck-ups.
To change subjects a little, I like how Goetia's plan involves a very big, very elaborate burnt offering, the most common type of offering in the Bible.
Shirou's machine-like dedication is very appealing at times. And if not that, his infallible sense of schedule certainly is
We've had to endure much, you and I, but within the week there will be old men running the world
OLD MEN ARE THE FUTURE
