I don't think traits belonged in The Sims 4, at least with their vision of emotions. We were given only a fraction of traits available from the huge list of TS3's traits, and each one felt less fleshed out than their TS3 version. Really, it just seems like they did not think the whole personality aspect of our Sims beyond emotions.
I think the solution is to work from TS2's personality point system upwards. Maybe they could infuse the interest system of TS2 with the trait system of TS3. I don't see much value in recycling emotions for TS5, that's for sure.
Their vision of emotions? That doesn't go beyond the animations of slamming a fridge, or stomping around, or sadly eating with quivering lips....
They don't have emotions about any other sim. Or any relationship....except when the game has coded them to go hug a family member autonomously. The "emotion" selling point was a farce from the get-go. We've yet to see it in action in game like they advertised.
