I am no more sadistic than most people. I have had experience being "clinically robotic." For example, watching someone slip and fall is not funny. It is illogical. Slipping and falling was a waste of time, and if it has caused injury, it will be the source of problems later.

I am most robotic when I haven't been in contact with a dual for a while. Spending time with betas may make me more robotic than spending time alone. If anything, clinical roboticness is masochistic rather than sadistic, because of the way it focuses on independence.
