To me Lifestyles are similar how personality works in The Sims 2. There weren't any traits, but you could put personality points into different categories like how social your sim is and lazy/active. Only this time life experience can change that, which seems more realistic. I think this will be a really cool feature.
@Csibeubi3 I mean they are literally traits though, judging by the names, several of them we even had in the Sims 3 as traits already.
To me it sounds like traits influence behaviour, but the lifestyles themselves are influenced by behaviour as they can change over time, so they are different from traits. Or you could consider them as temporary traits if you must. I think they will add more options to describe your sims personality, especially if you don't give them traits that sort of force them into these lifestyles. I am interested to know more about the junk food fiend and health food nut, it seems like foods are getting a make-over and being separated into good foods and junk foods.
