I disagree with a few things in it.

- Being mischievous doesn't disqualify a character from Pure Evil. Haven't you heard of the Evil is Petty and Kick the Dog tropes? Pure Evil villains don't always commit large scale crimes, sometimes they are content commiting sabotage and acting like general jerks. That doesn't make them any less vile, if anything it makes them come off as worse due to how needlessly petty they are.

- I also disagree about villains who are insecure not counting, at leasy I would say it depends on the circumstance. If the villain's unsecurities are played sympathetically by the setting then yeah but if it is just self pity then no, for example Lotso Huggin Bear is insecure as he was hurt by Daisey losing hom by accident but he is specifically called out on his self pity by the rest of the characters.
