Ah, the cusp!
I'm obviously not Ed (beard's not quite that long or gray, and I'm taller
and dumber looking), but I'm here and typing, so I'll take a chance. I'd
say the thing is that the "allthingsforallpeople" temperament is still
under construction and consideration.  Ed (by a combination of
precognition, experience, shrewd character analysis,  and bombastic
conviction) happened to key the right combination into the right customer
receptors to get the optimal (tip) results. This is a great thing, when it
works. The problem is that the medication requirements are customer
specific, and there is no "one size fits all". You probably had to have
been there.
