I think that in HW terms, Inigo's obsession is an edge or a bonus
applied to specific situations. If he can focus what he is doing on his
quest to avenge his father he is better than he has a right to be. His
dedication to learning the sword is a long term example. His rising from
defeat to slice and dice his father's killer is a short term one.
