our (the real) world is build on very few fundamental, but that create a fuckton amount of emergent propriety (in the talk with alonon he say the same from te difference between magic for human and elven), say 50% purity an 50% lust mean ager span and birth rate. alonon is untouched by sexual magic, but simon is alredy here, he's immune to any lust-magic effect, and attain that protection long before he acquired a shard, but this don't stop him to have lust or be capable to have sex.

in the first meeting (after the trial post summit) he (alonon) say "We may have free will, but that free will is a joke", a free will mean the ability to choose, and implicity mean any person is different from the other, reduce all the realiy to a measure of sex/purity is misleading, they are the brick or reality, but reality is much more, in the dialogue in the research room

Riala: "I'll admit the idea of it being based on simpler fundamentals troubled me at first, but it doesn't invalidate all of our knowledge."

Wendis: "I agree. This isn't like finding out that a castle has a shaky foundation, it's more like finding out that castle was built by slave labor."

Wendis: "It may not be pleasant, but it doesn't change the facts of the castle itself."

that fundamental can explain a lot, why dwarren are high resistance to lust magic or why the succubi cannot live with the sexual part of their soul stripped away, but human can. but don't change the reality.

and "I think it has the ring of authenticity. There are some issues to work out... but I think they will." in the same dialogue, alonon is right, perhaps not utterly right, but very close.
