as mentioned, while I too acknowledge the Pure Good has a "no willing killing" rule in place that makes Disney Princes hard to qualify there's also a problem in that rule itself since many, many stories view the killing of extremely evil creatures / monsters as a good thing (good versus evil).. the "no kill" rule only truly became a major part of heroism post-"comic code" era, prior to this era even people like Superman and Batman killed opponents.

Perhaps the Pure Good category needs a little rework to reflect this, same as the pacifist rule - some pacifists can engage in fighting if it is strictly to defend themselves or those they care for while others refuse to fight no matter what.

I think for the Princes we should also remember they are meant to exist mostly in a fantasy version of medieval times, the hero standards usually differ depending on era or culture.
